Hey there, I’m
Manas Gera.
Presenter, creator, writer, actor.
In that particular order.
About me
First off, I’m grateful to have you curiously scrolling through this little website. I'm Manas, and growing up, I often found myself flipping to the back pages of my newspaper, where mankind’s wins took centre stage. After a couple of interesting years in digital marketing, I took the leap to turn passion into profession. Sports presenting and storytelling were the goals. And with all due humility, we’ve smashed it out of the park!
I became the first Indian to report live from a FIFA World Cup touchline at Qatar 2022. This came after I became the face of the Premier League’s Indian social channels and traveled across Spain, fronting the South Asian broadcast of La Liga. Along the way, I completed my master’s in Sports Journalism, wrote features for international outlets, and amidst all of this I somehow found myself dancing in a Tinder commercial.
"Show me," you ask?
"Scroll down," I insist!
Presenter
I've been a fan of public speaking for some time. I've been a fan of sport for a longer time. I joined the dots and the results are as follows.
Creator
While presenting, I couldn't help but get involved in other aspects of storytelling, such as scripting, self-shooting, and editing. Here's how that turned out.
Writer
Writing earned me my first monthly check of Rupees 2000. I liked pocket money, I liked writing. And thus began this romance.
Actor
We've all got that one friend who's incredibly awkward in front of the camera, right? Yep, that was me. I needed to change that around, and plan A worked out A-okay.
