In 2021, the singer-actor was seen in Bollywood sports drama ‘83’’, essaying the role of legendary cricketer Madan Lal. To be sure, Harrdy is a former cricketer and has played in the U-19 Cricket World Cup India team as fast bowler in 2004. He is also an avid dancer and a fitness enthusiast.

Harrdy has been a good friend of PUMA and we have now combined this friendship into a partnership. As a brand, PUMA has a strong commitment towards influences on culture. We want to connect and influence our target consumers through all forms of culture such as art, music and cinema along with sports.

This confluence of music, culture and sports makes Harrdy a perfect brand-fit and we are confident of a deeper engagement with India’s huge youth cohort with this partnership with him.”
