The EO Gurgaon Swings Close the “Relive the 2011 World Cup Glory” of Indian Cricket Veterans
New Delhi, October 19, 2023, | Extending their portfolio of high-profile events, Entrepreneurs Organization, Gurgaon Chapter orchestrated an unforgettable event that beautifully merged cricket and entrepreneurship. Titled “Relive the 2011 World Cup Glory,” the event featured cricketing legends Virender Sehwag, Yuvraj Singh, and Harbhajan Singh, who recounted their incredible journey to victory in the 2011 ICC Men’s World Cup.
Kicking off with Aditya Tulsan’s, Learning Chair of EO Gurgaon, insightful keynote, the audience was treated to personal anecdotes, delving into the transformative power of cricket and its resonance with ordinary citizens. He set the tone on how much there is for entrepreneurs to learn from the perseverance and preparation of these WC 2011 champions. Mr. Vipul Jain, EO Gurgaon’s current President, highlighted the event’s unique blend of cricket fervour and entrepreneurship, transcending the conventional business-focused agenda.
Renowned sports presenter Riddhima Pathak adeptly moderated the session, coaxing the cricketers to share unique stories and valuable lessons. Virender Sehwag regaled with tales of his aggressive style, citing an off-handed comment by the opposition as motivation for the memorable four 4s against Pakistan. He shed light on the extensive preparations for the World Cup 2011 started in 2008 itself, emphasizing that every match during this 3 year period was treated like a knockout, fostering mental growth and preparing for the eventual challenges.
On being asked if he felt any pressure to convert his 90 runs to a century, Virender Sehwag shared how he approached the opportunity statistically. He said if he scored one run in each ball then there were 10 chances for him to lose his wicket. Instead, he tried to close the gap with the statistically fit option of scoring a century in the next two balls with a 4 and a 6.
Among jokes and anecdotes, Sehwag also took the time to appreciate Yuvraaj Singh’s contribution to the 2011 World Cup, saying, that without ‘Yuvi’, India would not have made it to the Semi-Finals.
Yuvraj Singh’s journey was profound, from World Cup triumph to chemotherapy. He shared how he had begun to experience pressing symptoms during the World Cup preparations, but he was undiagnosed then. The World Cup demanded full attention and grit, so he just persevered keeping in mind the larger goal. Continuing to talk about his battle with cancer, he emphasized the need for resilience and giving back through his foundation, YuviCan.
He also expressed gratitude for playing alongside Sachin Tendulkar, who not only guided him during his tough times but also became his motivation to win the cup. One of his remarks that also hit home was Singh advice on handling life by maintaining a steadfast mindset even after poor performances.
Harbhajan Singh added a unique perspective on India-Pakistan matches and the intense pressure in homeland games, especially getting match tickets for friends & family. When questioned about his pre-match superstitions, Harbhajan candidly shared his experiences, stating that he had experimented with different rituals, ultimately leaving the outcome to a higher power.
Addressing a difficult loss against South Africa, Singh revealed that it was a topic that nobody spent time discussing immediately after the match but rather chose to move on. He emphasized the resilience required to bounce back after such defeats, a sentiment echoed by many professional athletes.
In response to a business-related query, Singh drew parallels between the challenges faced in personal and professional life. He stated that cricketers, like entrepreneurs, experience the cyclical nature of success and failure. He jokingly mentioned how business orders can be realized again soon, but the chance at a World Cup comes only once in 4 years.
Commenting on the resounding success of the event, Mr. Vipul Jain, Current President of EO Gurgaon, said, “We wanted to congregate all our members to lean into the cricket fever in the air. , It is an atypical EO event, where the binding theme was essentially – fun and reliving the 2011 Victory, and we wanted to call the champions themselves to give us that inside edge. Whenever there is a story, there is a learning, and this is how this event was aligned to our theme of “Learn. Act. Inspire.” It’s not just a physical sport.
The mental dexterity that goes behind their game is parallel with an entrepreneur’s journey. We must train ourselves, and be mentally prepared for failures, let downs. Yuvraj’s story of winning the World Cup, getting diagnosed immediately after, and then returning to the field is as motivating as it is shocking. As entrepreneurs, we get to the pinnacle of success, we fail, we stand up again. So, it is always great to learn from such champions.”
The event concluded with a heartfelt gesture, as the cricketers were felicitated with paintings created by autistic children, along with donations in their names. The EO members shared memorable moments with the cricketing icons, marking a successful culmination of an extraordinary event aligned with the theme of “Learn. Act. Inspire.”

Star Bharat Celebrated Artists Share Cherished Memories and Upcoming Plans for the Navratri Festival
Navratri is a nine-night Hindu festival dedicated to the Goddess Durga, celebrating her various forms and attributes. The festival involves traditional dances like Garba and Dandiya, where people dress in colorful attire, offer prayers, and come together to celebrate the spirit of unity and devotion. As the festive season of Navratri approaches, celebrated artists from Star Bharat, Nehha Pendse, Amandeep Sidhu, and Sapna Sikarwar, have come forward to share their cherished memories and upcoming plans for the joyous Navratri festival.
Amandeep Sidhu who plays the character of Siya in ‘Saubhagyavati Bhava-Niyam aur Shartien Laagu’ says, “Navratri, a celebration of Goddess Durga’s triumph over the demon King Mahishasura, holds a special significance for me. I find a similarity between Durga’s personality and my own – caring and loving yet capable of assertive action when needed. I eagerly anticipate the joy of playing dandiya and relishing the traditional Navratri prasad, such as puri, chole, and more.
The vibrant festivities bring back cherished memories, Although I’m busy shooting for Saubhagyavati Bhava I would still be joining the Garba dance this year with friends and family if I get time. As Navratri is a time for revelry and spiritual reflection, blending tradition and merriment in a wonderful way I would like to wish everyone a Happy Navratri.
Sapna Sikarwar aka Kashmira from ‘May I come in Madam’ says, “Navratri festivals hold a special place in my heart, evoking immense excitement within me due to my love for playing garba. My hometown has a significant association with this festival. During my childhood, we would eagerly dress up and enthusiastically participate in garba dances, looking forward to the joy of receiving gifts.
These fond memories create a deep connection with this festival for me. Speaking about this year, my mother will conduct the pooja at home, as is our tradition. Despite my busy schedule shooting for ‘May I Come In, Madam,’ I’ll make an effort to take some time off and join in the Garba festivities to relive those cherished moments.”
Nehha Pendse, aka Sanjana from Star Bharat, show May I Come in Madam, shared her thoughts, “Navratri is a time of immense joy and togetherness. It’s about coming together as a community and celebrating the triumph of good over evil. I have beautiful memories of dancing and singing during Navratri celebrations. This year, I’m looking forward to creating more wonderful memories with friends and loved ones, and of course, enjoying the delicious festive food.”

Why Online Businesses Fail: Top 5 Mistakes to Avoid
9 out of 10 online stores close within the first four months, according to research by Marketing Signals. 20% of startups fail within the first year, and 70% don’t reach a decade, Fundera has found. These statistics show that a business idea alone, no matter how good, is not enough to succeed online. However, not everything is as complicated as it might seem.
“Businesses that are not yet online miss out on enormous opportunities. Approximately 2 billion people made online purchases last year; according to the U.S. Census Bureau, eCommerce accounts for around 15 percent of retail sales in the U.S. It’s not just about selling but also online visibility. A Google Global Retail Study shows that more than half of users search for and discover new brands online,” says Giedrius Zakaitis, Chief Product Officer at Hostinger. “Having an online presence is a necessity. And it’s never been easier to start a website, even for beginners with no technical skills. But getting a website is only the first step toward online success.”
Hostinger web hosting experts have analyzed the five most common reasons online businesses fail and the mistakes that lead to this.
Lack of confidence. “The internet is not for me,” “It’s too hard,” “I don’t know how” – it’s unlikely to conquer the internet with that attitude. In addition, it is often based on nothing more than misconceptions.
Building a website may seem complicated, but it’s actually much simpler than it sounds. There are quite a few web development tools that don’t require any coding knowledge, and artificial intelligence (AI) integration makes building and maintaining a website a breeze.
“Creating a website is no longer a challenge. Many people are surprised to learn that they’ve procrastinated for too long without reason. This lack of confidence can allow competitors to get ahead, making it more difficult to catch up and surpass them”, says Giedrius Zakaitis.
Poor website design. Mismatching colors, too much text, buttons everywhere, pixelated pictures, and other bad design elements may lead to high bounce rates. If hiring a professional web designer is too expensive, there are other ways to make a website attractive.
One solution is to entrust the job to AI. For example, Hostinger Website Builder is equipped with advanced AI technology that can generate a unique website in no time. This includes a one-of-a-kind design, layout, color scheme, and relevant content with ready-to-use images.
The website can be re-generated by refining the query. If nothing AI offers is suitable, there’s a selection of 150 pre-made designer templates to choose from.
“Having a website that matches your brand is essential for your business recognition. Selecting the right colors and adding logos and relative pictures may take some time, but it’s worth it,” says Giedrius.
Messy website navigation. Each website must have pages and sections that are relevant to its type. All these parts must be laid out and easily accessible. Otherwise, visitors can leave the site altogether if they struggle to find what they are looking for.
Giedrius Zakaitis states, “Two out of three clients choose to have an AI-generated, ready-to-publish website. The AI suggests the most commonly used sections needed for that type of site, but it is up to the client to decide what else might be important to visitors and should be added. In other words, each site is unique, fully functional, and can be adjusted to a personal liking.”
Limited or no marketing. A website without visitors is not a business. Digital marketing is a costly but necessary investment, and it’s just money down the drain for those who don’t know the game. Search engine optimized (SEO) content might be the best way to start attracting the target audience with little effort.
Choose a website builder with an integrated AI-based plugin to generate SEO content and keep the site up-to-date. It’s also worth exploring the possibilities of Google Analytics, Google AdSense, or Facebook Pixel marketing integrations to track visitors and their behavior.
Slow web hosting. 40% of visitors leave the website if it takes longer than three seconds to load. Website speed affects traffic, conversion rates, and even search engine ranking.
It’s not only the size and complexity of web page elements that can slow a website down but also hosting quality and server performance. A content delivery network (CDN) and caching (storing temporary copies) can significantly increase site performance and reduce server load.
Another important component is security: SSL certificates, a 99.9% uptime guarantee, and backups are some of the examples worth considering when choosing a web host.
“Speed, security, and scalability are the factors every business must consider when choosing a web hosting provider. As the business grows and expands, the hosting must adapt to its needs, so you can focus on what matters – your business development,” says Giedrius Zakaitis.
Offline businesses lose a huge opportunity. This is especially true for the retail sector: e-commerce is already big and continues to grow at an increasing rate. It is not necessarily about competing with the big brands; sometimes, it is enough to find a niche and establish yourself in it.
Creating a website for achieving online success isn’t as challenging as it might sound. While marketing tools are important for attracting visitors, it’s crucial to ensure that poor website design or confusing navigation won’t deter them.
All in all, choosing an all-in-one solution can facilitate an easy website launch, scaling, and security.

And if that’s not iconic – I don’t know what is.”
Jahnvi Kapoor was quoted speaking about the phone’s fabulous Flexform selfies and universal appeal- “The Flip is a stunning phone with the tech and the performance to back it up. I am a total selfie person and the experience I had when taking Flexform selfies – it was something else. But what I love most about it is – it’s not a trend – it’s a phone that is timeless and elegant. It’s not made with just one generation in mind – its appeal is universal. That’s what makes it iconic.”
Roycin D’souza – Vice President from OML Entertainment was quoted as saying, “OML Entertainment carries a legacy of amalgamating star power with branded campaigns, enabling brands to capture the eye of a larger audience. OPPO India a leading innovator in smart devices technology, and empowers users with cutting-edge technology and innovation.
The #MadeToBeIconic campaign for OPPO’s #FindN3FlipPhone is an unparalleled and monumental endeavor.

The presence of Zeenat Aman and Jhahnvi Kapoor sharing the limelight, is nothing short of magical and iconic.
