Sourav Ganguly hosted a gathering at his Kolkata residence on April 18, 2025, where PR Solution and the Aditya Group came together to support Subhankar “Subho” Das, a former footballer who played for Kalighat MS, Mohammedan Sporting and Aryan Club in the Calcutta Premier League.

Subho has faced a series of medical challenges since 2021, beginning with a cerebral hemorrhage that left his left side paralyzed. More recently, a severe infection led to the amputation of his right arm from the fingers to the elbow. The past seven months have brought severe financial strain.
Subho’s troubles began in 2020, when he caught COVID-19. He was still recovering from that blow when, the following year, a stroke hit, paralyzing the left side of his body, especially his hand. It was a cruel twist for someone whose game relied so much on balance and touch.
But he didn’t back down. With long months of physiotherapy, he clawed his way back from paralysis, determined to stand on his own again. Just as things were beginning to look up, another nightmare unfolded.
A few months ago, he noticed his right fingers weren’t responding like they used to. The colour in them darkened. Movement faded. Doctors found a serious infection, and the only option left was amputation, from his fingers to the elbow.
It’s been one setback after another. But he keeps showing up, keeps fighting.
The two organizations rallied friends and well-wishers, raising ₹125,000 for Subho’s medical and living expenses, with the Aditya Group contributing ₹100,000 and PR Solution adding ₹25,000.
Ganguly said, “Subho’s courage and indomitable spirit have inspired us all. Today’s success belongs to him, his resolve is proof that no challenge can extinguish true passion.”
