INDIAN shooting has garnered considerable interest over the years. However, the Olympics has been like an unbreakable riddle in the last two editions of the mega event with the shooters flattering to deceive. Twenty one shooters (all-time high for the country), who'll be travelling for the Paris edition, will be aiming to end that jinx. One among them is pistol shooter Arjun Singh Cheema, who's currently training in Austria.

The 23-year-old from Punjab is part of the squad after acing a series of trials (which was the main criteria of the selection policy). Having come this far, Arjun, who was formerly into swimming, is intent on making the most of this opportunity.
