Aruna Budda Reddy is the new underdog on the block, who made history by bringing home the first medal from the Gymnastics World Cup 2018. She spills the beans on her success and future plans
Making a name in a land like India, where the likes of Sania Mirza, Saina Nehwal and P V Sindhu have earned global plaudits with their trailblazing achievements, is no mean feat for any female sportsperson.
Moreover, to make a name in a sport whose popularity in India rose only after Dipa Karmakar became a household name three years ago. For the uninitiated, she was the first Indian gymnast to compete in the Rio Olympics 2016. And now, Aruna Budda Reddy has followed suit and carved a niche for gymnastics in the country after her historic outing at the Gymnastics World Cup this year. She not only hogged the limelight Down Under, where the World Cup was held, but returned to the homeland as the first Indian to have won a medal at the Gymnastics World Cup.
