For many of us, the way we have perceived the sport of Kabaddi has undergone a veritable change in the last three or four years. What once reminded us of dusty patches of land playing host to a few neighbourhood enthusiasts now invokes images of vibrant sports arenas, replete with bright-jerseyed players as well as celebrities. And the single biggest event responsible for this perception transformation is the Pro-Kabaddi League (PKL).
