Nav Bhatia’s journey to become the Raptors’ superfan after immigrating to Canada revealed in CBC documentary

If you’re a basketball fan in Toronto, you know Nav Bhatia as the Raptors’ superfan sitting courtside at every home game, cheering on his favourite team while heckling the opposition.

But there’s more to his story that you may not know.

Now, a new CBC documentary pulls the curtain back on the man in those courtside seats. “Superfan: The Nav Bhatia Story” offers an in-depth portrait of the 69-year-old by getting him to open up about the racism he faced after immigrating to Canada, his arranged marriage and even how he got those plum seats in the first place.
