Badminton is not as glamorous as cricket.

I don't think I have the ability or patience to teach badminton to others.

My philosophy is to not be scared of anyone. If I play well, great; if I dont, I learn from the match and move on.

My hero is Roger Federer.

I was really surprised when I was told that my grandmother did not come to see me till a month after my birth. I was born seven years after my only sister Chandranshu, and my birth was a big disappointment for her.

After I win a match, I celebrate it by having an ice cream.

My grandmother did not come to see me till a month after my birth. I was born seven years after my only sister and my birth was a big disappointment for her. In it there is a message that I understand very well now about the discrimination against the girl child. My uncles and other relatives are against encouraging girls. My parents are more open. They back me all the way.
