rishabh pant: Collective Artists Network to exclusively represent cricketer Rishabh Pant

The Collective Artist Network of India’s leading talent management agency (formerly KWAN) has signed cricketer Rishabh Pant and will exclusively manage his business interests.

Prior to Collective, Pant was managed by JSW Sports.

Vijay Subramaniam, Group CEO and Founder, Collective Artist Network said, “I am really excited to welcome Rishabh to Collective Artist Network. “His pure talent in the field and his naturally friendly personality make him a truly unique proposition for his fans and partners. We at Collective look forward to taking the Rishabh brand forward with the infrastructure.”

The 24-year-old wicket-keeper batsman from Uttarakhand made his T20 International debut in 2017 and was named the ICC Men’s Emerging Cricketer of the Year at the 2018 ICC Awards.

In February 2021, Pant was named the Men’s Player of the Month at the first edition of the ICC Player of the Month Awards. He was also the fourth youngest Indian to captain an IPL team and stood in for the injured Shikhar Dhawan for the 2019 Cricket World Cup.

“I am thrilled to be working with Collective Artists Network. It feels incredible to be exclusively represented by India’s biggest players in the talent ecosystem in India and I am sure it will be a very successful partnership,” said Pant.

The collective also manages Deepika Padukone, Kartik Aaryan, Shraddha Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, Sara Ali Khan, Sonam Kapoor, Tiger Shroff, Hrithik Roshan, Yash and Pritam Chakraborty.

In its sports department, the company manages Indian women’s cricket team captain Harmanpreet Kaur and Indian junior badminton champion Anupama Upadhyay.

“We are very proud to announce the signing of our marquee at the Games, Rishabh Pant. He is the poster child of a young and fearless India who is a marketer’s delight. We are really looking forward to see what we can create together,” said Ritesh Nath, Head-Sports, Collective Artists Network.
