Here's what Manu Bhaker told broadcasters after winning the Bronze medal in 10m air pistol event at 2024 Paris Olympics
"It was a long due medal for India. I was merely a mode to do it. India deserves even more medals. We are looking forward to (winning) as many medals as possible this time. Personally for me the feeling is surreal. I put in a lot of effort. Even till the last shot I was fighting with all energy that I had. This is a bronze. Maybe better next time," Manu Bhaker said after her historic bronze medal win at 2024 Paris Olympics.
"Honestly, I read a lot of Gita, so what was going through my mind is 'just do what you are meant to do, do what you are supposed to do' and leave whatever. Destiny you can't control. So, in Gita, Krishna says to Arjun: "You focus on the Karma, and not on the outcome. That was running in my head," she said.
"In Tokyo I was very disappointed. It took a long time to recover form that. The past is in the past, let's just focus on the present. This medal its a team work always. I am really happy I was a medium to do it."
