Entrepreneur Sandeep Nanda is bringing a grand, never-before-seen fashion league to India \u2014 one that promises to blend the glamour of couture with the adrenaline of competition. Known for once soaring high in the aviation industry, Nanda is no stranger to glitz and innovation. His journey began with the entertainment revolution in India as part of the founding team at Radio Mirchi, where he helped shape FM radio in North India. That experience gave him a masterclass in mass communication, pop culture, and audience psychology.<\/p>\n<p>Now, he\u2019s channelling all that learning into launching the Indian Fashion Glamour League (IFGL) \u2014 a league as ambitious, high-energy, and fan-driven as the most significant global sporting events. Nanda explains<em>, \u201cWhy should sports have all the leagues? Why not fashion? Why not creativity?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Backed by his India-Canada venture, Xmaxx Studios Pvt Ltd, the Indian Fashion Glamour League is no longer just an idea \u2014 it\u2019s a full-fledged, multi-million-dollar entertainment property in the making.<\/p>\n<p>The concept is simple, yet revolutionary. Much like the Indian Premier League (IPL), IFGL will feature city-based teams \u2014 such as Delhi Divas, Mumbai Marigold, Punjabi Patakas \u2014 and even some international squads like Dubai Dazzlers and European Elites. Each team will be owned by celebrities or entrepreneurs and consist of models, stylists, designers, and digital influencers. These teams will compete weekly in fashion face-offs judged by experts and voted on by audiences, both on live stages and OTT platforms.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s fashion meets Formula 1. It\u2019s styling meets strategy. And it\u2019s time the world saw Indian creativity in a league format,\u201d says Nanda.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>At Xmaxx Studios, the motto is \u201cIdeas Become IP.\u201d With offices in Delhi and Vancouver, Nanda\u2019s vision for IFGL is to create India\u2019s answer to K-pop, Formula 1, and the Met Gala \u2014 all rolled into one dynamic league, driven by format, fandom, and fire. <em>\u201cIFGL isn\u2019t just about fabric. It\u2019s about identity. It\u2019s not about walking the ramp \u2014 it\u2019s about owning your space on it,\u201d<\/em> he adds.<\/p>\n<p>The league will feature live auctions to select stylists and creators, echoing the IPL\u2019s cricketer bidding process \u2014 complete with contracts, bidding wars, and team dynamics. The season will unfold episode by episode, with fierce fashion battles judged by top industry names and audience votes. Designed as a digital-first, immersive experience, IFGL will span OTT screens to red carpets, merging entertainment with innovation.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThis is for those who don\u2019t just watch culture \u2014 they build it. For investors, celebrities, and brands who know where the next wave is,\u201d Nanda says.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Each team will come with a 10-year license, revenue-sharing models, and IP branding rights \u2014 a business opportunity wrapped in designer packaging. Season One\u2019s auction is slated for late 2025 in Mumbai. The stage is set. The teams are forming. And the world is watching.<\/p>\n<p>From Vancouver to Vogue, Sandeep Nanda isn\u2019t just building a league \u2014 he\u2019s scripting a cultural landmark. And this time, India isn\u2019t just participating in the global entertainment game \u2014 it\u2019s setting the rules.<\/p>\n<p><em> If you have any objection to this press release content, kindly contact pr.error.rectification@gmail.com to notify us.
