The announcement came just yesterday, or maybe the day before – time seems to blur when you’re following these things. Nazara Technologies Limited, the parent company, put out a press release on November 12, 2025. It’s a move into the… well, the world of pickleball.
Absolute Sports, their subsidiary, is the one making the actual play. They’re acquiring a Mumbai franchise in the Indian Pickleball League. Seems like a strategic move, or at least that’s what the official line is, as per the reports.
I’ve been watching Nazara for a while. They’ve got their hands in a lot of pies, from esports to interactive gaming. This acquisition of a Mumbai franchise, though? It feels…different. A bit unexpected, for once. Pickleball, of all things.
The press release itself, as I read it, was pretty straightforward. No soaring rhetoric, just the facts. The ministry confirmed the deal. The details of the acquisition weren’t immediately clear, of course. But the fact that they’re entering the market is what matters.
It’s interesting, isn’t it? How these companies are constantly evolving, adapting. Always looking for the next big thing. And pickleball…well, it seems to be having a moment.
Meanwhile, the Indian Pickleball League is still relatively new, and this could be a good opportunity for Nazara to get in on the ground floor. A witness recalled the excitement about the deal.
By evening, the news had already begun to circulate, shared across various social media platforms. It’s a fast-moving world, this one, but it is what it is.
