I start with a declaration of guilt. Like me, I believe, millions of my countrymen, I did not really know too much about Abhinav Bindra till yesterday. The 24 year old shooter brought mammoth pride to India & Indians by winning the 10m air rifle shooting Gold Medal at the Beijing Olympics in a thrilling final.
Everyone including me was impressed by his cool appearance and especially by his business like replies in the post event press conference. He seems to be truly dedicated and disciplined. His focus and mental strength seems to be quite amazing for one of his age.
It made me feel proud & at the same time became emotional when the Indian National Anthem was played for the first time in 28 years in the Olympics.
