Varunya who aims to represent India at the Olympics in the near future, thanked Cycle Pure Agarbathies for their support and said “It is an absolute pleasure to be associated with Cycle Pure Agarbathies, who have been doing so much towards shaping careers of youngsters like me. We sportsmen thrive on passion and I’m thankful to the brand for believing in me and fuelling my passion for tennis. I look forward to having a great tournament at Marry Pierce Indian Ocean Series”
Arjun Ranga, Managing Director, Cycle Pure Agarbathies, said, “We at Cycle Pure Agarbathies have a rich legacy of nurturing sporting talent. We have always tried to foster a sense of respect, reverence and adulation through our innovative products and this association with tennis prodigy Varunya Chandrashekar is logical manifestation of our vision. We also believe in supporting and providing reasons to pray, and what could be better than praying for her win. We wish Varunya all the very best”. Apart from Varunya, Cycle Pure Agarbathies is also sponsoring tennis players including Suraj R Prabodh and Vasishy Cheruku. With the support and push from Cycle Pure Agarbathies these players manage to dream of playing higher level of tournaments.
Over the years, Cycle Pure Agarbathies has become one of the leading brands to be associated with sports in the country. When KPL was announced, it was felt that a strong association with the tournament will be a rallying point in encouraging and nurturing cricketing talent in the hinterland of Karnataka, giving them an opportunity for professional exposure. This strong urge to promote talent resulted in Cycle Pure Agarbathies taking up the franchise of Mysore Warriors.
