From casually playing games on my sister’s phone to representing India at the World Esports Cup in Brazil in 2019, Dushing brothers have come a long way. The duo, who hails from Ahmednagar—a city located in Maharashtra, is currently the only twins to play competitive esports in the country.

Their father used to be a government employee while their mother, a housewife. Just like any other kid, Anand and Swastik would play games on the phone just for fun before they decided to pursue it as a full-time career after their 12th board. However, it wasn’t easy for them to convince their parents about their decision but with the help of their elder sister, they eventually got the nod from their parents.   

Swastik continued his practice and participated in some local tournaments and trained harder to get back to the top. His determination, the support of his brother, sister, and friends resulted in him making a strong comeback to reach back at the top. In their own words, World Esports Cup (WEC 2021) will be the much-needed platform to regain popularity and people’s attention once again.

Shaheed’s career story is going from rags to riches. Shaheed hails from a small village, located 50km away from Ahmedabad. His father works as a driver in Saudi Arabia and his mother passed away when he was 10. Since then, Shaheed has been living with his maternal uncle in Ahmedabad. Playing alongside friends, Shaheed started his gaming journey with Clash of Clans in 2017. While his friends lost their interest in gaming after some time, Shaheed developed a liking and passion towards it as the days pass. He started participating in tournaments. 

Shaheed has represented India at the Asia invitational tournament which was held in Jakarta, Indonesia in 2019. Knowing the importance of such a big tournament, which will be conducted by India Today Group, Shaheed feels it will allow him a platform to increase his fanbase not just in India but also abroad. He says with celebrities also involved, there will be fame as well as its good opportunity from a monetary perspective. In the next 2-3 years, Shaheed aims to grow on YouTube as well but right now his focus is on playing well as a team in WEC’21 tournaments. He is also one of the few original starters of Free Fire as a competitive Esports player in India.
