Kavya Maran is the owner of Hyderabad’s IPL team, Sunrisers Hyderabad. She is the daughter of Kalanithi Maran, owner of the Sun group.
She was born in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on 6th August 1992. She is a populous female entrepreneur and is also known as the daughter of Sun Group.
She came into the limelight when she was seen during a match, where she was supporting her team from the dugout. The camera person showed her, which captured her beautiful emotions for the team.
Family
There is not much to say about her family because her entire family is already very popular among Indian business groups. Kaveri Kalanithi Maran is her mother, and her father’s name is Kalanithi Maran. Her mother is the top-earning businesswoman in India, and her father is the chairperson of the Sun Group.
Other than mother and father, Samiksha Maran is her elder sister, Murasolk Maran is her grandfather, who has been our country’s union minister, and Mallika Maran is her grandmother’s name.
Education
If we talk about her schooling and education, she completed her primary education in a private school in Chennai and later got her undergraduate degree from Chennai University. She went to the UK for a post-graduate degree, where she completed an MBA.
In 2018, she was appointed the CEO of the Sunrisers Hyderabad and has been running the show since then.
Marriage and boyfriend
Kavya Maran is 29, and by the looks of it, she has been seen alone supporting her team, so it is safe to say that she is not married.
But she has been dating Anirudh Ravichandran for quite a time now. Both of them were spotted at the premiere of the Jawan movie. Anirudh Ravichandran is a music producer, and they are dating each other.
Net Worth
As per some reports, media, and websites, the net worth of Kavya Maran is about 250 crore, but there is no official information shared from the Sun group or her family.
It is just pure speculation and could be wrong. She’s not a complete businesswoman. She is also involved in Sun TV network’s commercial business. She handles the team and helps the network whenever needed. Sadly, Kavya is not available on any social media.
Kavya Maran was seen in recent IPL player auctions
Very recently, Kavya again became a talking point on the internet when she went for Pat Cummins, the captain of the Australian team, in the IPL auction. She spent a whopping ₹20.50 crores to get him in Sunrisers jersey. With this bid, she became the second highest-bidder player in her team in IPL 2024.
She also spent another 1.5 crores to get Wanindu Hasranga, Srilanka’s spinner all-rounder, in the auction, and she was very enlightened after picking the two players. With her aggressive approach in the auction, she again won the internet and the fans of Sunrisers Hyderabad.
She is one of the most beautiful CEOs of IPL; she is always available on the day of the match and is seen supporting her players and cheering them up.
Net Worth of Sunrisers Hyderabad
Sunrisers Hyderabad has a value of 509 crores, which makes it the fifth-richest franchise in the IPL. It has been one of the successful franchises in the IPL.
In 2016, under the leadership of Warner and Dravid, the team won their first trophy. Later in 2018, they managed to qualify for finals but were unable to win the match, and they lost to MS Dhoni’s CSK on that day.
Talking about their achievements, they’re the fifth most valued team in the richest cricket league. After the T20 league, every year, the team goes with filled pockets. Hyderabad has won a lot of money in the cricketing league.
This year, IPL is set to be played from Mach. The match this year will start a little earlier than usual because we also have the T20 World Cup.
