Kabaddi has always been a popular sport amongst the regional population in India but it never really found its place in the cosmopolitan areas of the country. This all changed since the establishment of the Pro Kabaddi League back in 2014.
The PKL has helped take the sport of Kabaddi to the masses due to some impressive marketing and publicity campaigns in the last four years. The addition of some popular personalities like Abhishek Bachan, Sajid Nadiadwala, and Sachin Tendulkar, who each own teams in the tournament, also boosted its popularity on a global scale as well.
