At a felicitation function to celebrate her Paris medals, Bhaker stresses on importance of confidence & embracing one's culture

MANU'S WORDS OF WISDOM

PRESSURE is a word that's oftspoken about in the world of sport. Having handled highpressure situations on numerous occasions, Manu Bhaker is someone who is well-acquainted to provide a thesis on it.

She was thrown a different form of pressure on Tuesday. A young student, at a function in the city, made her an innocent request, asking her to sing.

Manu was stumped for a second but dealt with it with utmost grace. After mulling for a moment, she sang Dekhha Tenu (by Jaani and Mohammad Faiz) to draw the loudest cheer from the people who were there to witness that rare sight. Such is her life at the moment. It's all about happy tunes and happy dances. Her world is brimming with adulation from all quarters after her historic medal haul at the recent Paris Olympics. One can only imagine the festive spirit accompanying her as people (near and far), recognising her talent, try to be part of her narrative.
