Bollywood star Esha Gupta becomes Khelraja’s Brand Ambassador

Khelraja, an Asian real-money gaming brand that offers sports betting, live casino and esports, has signed actor Esha Gupta as its brand ambassador in a bid to further popularise online gaming among Southeast Asia’s growing digital user base.

As part of the long-term association, the Bollywood and Telugu star will promote Khelraja’s sportsbook and casino segment across digital and offline marketing channels.

Khelraja’s latest partnership follows a similar deal made with former Manchester United and France footballer Patrice Evra.

Country Manager of Khelraja Japneet Singh Sethi said: “Khelraja is already extremely popular amongst Southeast Asia’s growing community of online gamers, thanks to the range of its offerings.

“As one of the coolest iGaming platforms, it has a natural synergy with Esha Gupta, whose bold and vivacious persona has enthralled and entertained millions of people across the continent.

“With Esha as the face of the brand, we are confident of accelerating our current growth trajectory and achieving greater operational scale than ever.”

Gupta said: “As one of the top iGaming platforms in Southeast Asia, Khelraja offers a bouquet of options for digital-first people like me, who play online games while also getting a chance to earn real money rewards.

“I am delighted to be representing Khelraja as its brand ambassador and am looking forward to representing the brand’s offerings across channels.”
