Social Buzz: Hero ISL celebrates the Diwali spirit

Over the last couple of days, all of India has been gripped by the Diwali festivities, with everyone joining in the celebration to spread the spirit of the festival of lights. Hero Indian Super League (Hero ISL) clubs and players, too, got involved, with some of them even conveying across some very important messages through social media.
Defending champions, Bengaluru FC, for instance, reminded everyone to always have an eye out for our planet. Striker and legend, Sunil Chhetri, meanwhile, was tuned to the emotions of those spending the festive season away from their families – just like the Blues will be, given their upcoming match away to FC Goa on Monday.
This #Deepavali, let's make the right choices and always keep the planet in mind.
