The modern-day royals of the mallets, HH Maharaja Sawai Padmanabh Singh, the Prince of Jaipur is prepared to welcome the much anticipated 2024-25 season of the sport of royals. On the hallowed grounds of Jaipur, exclusively witness the majestic allure of the glorious game. The dashing demeanour and the princely charm entices the spectators who swarm to catch a glimpse of the polo prodigy in action. The ambience of the arena is distilled with the affection of cheers and applause by the young icon’s admirers.
The Jaipur Polo team, headed by His Excellence Maharaja Sawai Padmanabh Singh, is the true representation of magnanimity and opulence. Maharaja Padmanabh, or fondly known as “Pacho”, is not just the flagbearer of excellence and grandeur, but is the reigning youth icon in the fields of luxury and sports. Emerging with his munificent aura and princely regality, Pacho is not just the head of the Jaipur Polo team, but is also the captain of the Indian National Polo team. His presence, in itself, is one of greatness, and his perennial affiliation to the sport equates to majestic aristocracy, luxury, and eliteness.
Emerging as one of the most sought-after and inspiring personalities in the amalgamation of sports and luxury, the Maharaja is revered as a cultural icon, and is rising like the phoenix to be the face of royal affluence and generosity. The Maharaja represented India at the FIP World Polo Championship in 2017 and sustained the enduring legacy etched by his grandfather, the Late His Highness Maharaja Bhawani Singh Ji. In 2023, Maharaja Padmanabh competed in the U.S. Polo Association Legends Cup held in the Pink City Club. True to his generationally rich heritage of nurturing polo culture, the youthful vision of Pacho extends beyond the realm of the field and seeks to make the sport more accessible. Hence, the title of a “Youth Icon” has been righteously bestowed upon the young Maharaja.
Moreover, Pacho is a true global icon and has been recently appointed as The Global Brand Ambassador of USPA. With his “old-money aesthetic”, altruistic aura, and magnificent influence in the worlds of fashion, lifestyle, luxury, and sport, he is the heart and soul of Indian polo affairs. Polo, that evolved out of the elite class’ interest, has now advanced towards highlighting the sumptuousness of the sport and its people.
When we talk about Jaipur Polo, we cannot help but focus on its grandiose, the charisma of the prodigious “Pacho”, and how his association with the team and sport has garnered the attention of the global elites towards India. The initiatives taken by Padmanabh which not only has sustained the noble legacy rather refined it with contemporary innovations. The city of Jaipur which is hailed as the confluence of modern infrastructure and urban landscape reflects the ethos of the game. It is only appropriate that the “King of Games” is being hosted in the Walled city, home to a century of decadence and grandeur.
Nurtured and sheltered by the luxuriant elites, polo has successfully emerged as ‘the’ sport of the century; and who better to represent its beauty than the influential and stunning Maharaja of Jaipur? The Jaipur Polo team is one of the most elite associations to the game of Polo, backed and headed by the Jaipur Royal family, and is a syndicate that will benefit its sponsors and collaborators. Brands, sponsors, stakeholders and collaborators are not just investing in the Jaipur Polo squad, but are building a tie with the Royal family of Jaipur, and bringing splendour to their existence. A relationship with the Jaipur Polo team immediately purports a close correspondence with the magnificence of the Maharaja of Jaipur, his opulent presence, and the influence he brings to the global elite.
