Mumbai : The Andheri Sports Complex witnessed a historic and grand event on Saturday as India’s first and only female professional boxing promoter, Sanna Suri, successfully hosted the country’s first high-fashion sports event under the banner of Sniper Boxing Promotion.
Sanna Suri is not just an internet personality and actress, but also a renowned fashion model and media figure associated with Femina. She has taken the fusion of sports and fashion to a new height. This event presented boxing in a stylish and glamorous manner — potentially setting a new trend in sports events.
The star-studded evening saw the presence of several Bollywood and television celebrities, including actor Vindu Dara Singh, Manoj Joshi, comedian Ehsaan Qureshi, Ajaz Khan, Hema Sharma, Zainab Patra and Yamini Malhotra. All of them praised this initiative and expressed their support for bringing the courageous sport of boxing closer to Indian youth.
Addressing the media, event organizer Sanna Suri said, “Boxing is a game of heart and courage. My goal is to take this sport to every corner of India and inspire the youth to embrace it.” She also shared that the initiative was entirely self-funded, without any sponsorship at present, though she is confident that support for the sport and its athletes will grow in the near future.
The event also received special support from Yogesh Lakhani of Bright Media, to whom Sanna publicly expressed her gratitude. She also thanked her team and all the guests who were part of this special effort.
Veteran actor Mohan Joshi commented, “India needs to move beyond cricket and start giving importance to other sports that can bring international recognition.” Meanwhile, Vindu Dara Singh said, “Wherever athletes are being encouraged, I will be there. This is perhaps the first time such an internationally styled sports event has been held in India.” Ajaz Khan urged the youth to consider sports alongside education as a viable career path.
Sanna Suri is also quite active on social media. Her Instagram handle is @sannavamnitasuri, where she describes herself as an “Actress Model.” As CEO of Sniper Boxing Promotion, she is managed by Nexzād Entertainment.
This event not only marked a new chapter in India's sports scene but also demonstrated how women in leadership can bring revolutionary changes to male-dominated fields. Sanna Suri’s initiative stands as an inspiring milestone for the future.
