@Cheung no doubt that beaming smile on her face during the medal ceremony told the story. .she was proud of her achievement and she should be, she said before the final that she will give her heart out and she totally fought hard, all three players deserved the medals.
I hope SIndhu starts becoming more consistent. Needs to win a super series asap. Will be a massive boost
As of today, prize money started pouring in. So far, 4.05 crores of money was announced by various States and associations , that means $7,52,450 . Pluss so many flats (house) + Open Lands + Brand ambassador for many real estate firms and Big Jewelery Shops + a BMW car etc etc. This is the first day announcements. Still much more to come.
She is gonna get shitload of money. Added to that, cars and probably some land gifted by government. Also heard in one of the interviews given by her before the Olympics that Sachin is gonna gift her a car if she wins a medal in this Olympics. Here is that interview bit(its in Telugu) - Just hope that she stays focused and doesn't get distracted after all this...
She is lucky that there are 2 Telugu states . Initially TG(one of the 2 Telugu states) announced cash prize of 1Crore . Since TG announced 1C, AP(other Telugu state) announced 3C. Since AP announced 3C, TG increased from 1C to 5C. That's some huge amount of cash. I am glad she is getting money but I feel our politicians are overdoing it,especially some chutiyas.
PV Sindhu Rousing Reception India knows how to make their stars feel on cloud 9 and showers adulation. Hope this motivates her and others to strive for more glory.
I just saw her final match against Carolina. I am pretty sure that she will be one of those badminton players to watch out for.
Is it possible that these companies promise money but don't pay up? Are they her (or Indian team) usual sponsors?
