Manu Bhaker's First Reaction On Winning Bronze Medal


"After Tokyo I was very disappointed and it took me a very long time to overcome that. Frankly speaking, I really can’t explain how good I am feeling today. I was fighting with all the energy I have. Really grateful that I could win the bronze. I read Bhagwat Gita and always tried to do what I am supposed to do, left everything else to god. We can’t fight destiny," said Manu Bhaker in her first reaction after winning the bronze medal, as reported by The Hindu.


Manu Bhaker's historic feat will now act as a major boost for the rest of the Indian contingents, as India have started Day 2 on a historic note.
