ISL Logos: Meaning and symbolism behind the Logos of each ISL team

#6 Chennaiyin FC

Chennaiyin FC finished top of the group last season

'Duradrishti', also called simply as ‘Drishti’, is a sign of positivity that the club espouses and aims to preserve. The logo adopted the image from the good luck charm that is a component of every household in Tamil Nadu, and thus represents the capital city as well as the entire state.

What's more interesting is that the charm is replicated with the same characteristics in countries such as Turkey, Spain and Italy, which gives it a uniquely global identity. A dissection of the logo’s colours, which is a combination of the yellow ‘Drishti’ on a blue background, reveals that whilst the yellow emits elements key to happiness such as hope and cheer, the blue accompanies these feelings with trust and honesty.
