We live in a country where real-life heroes don’t get much media attention but the filmy heroes are always in the spotlight for all the infamous reasons. Why do we fail to appreciate the heroes who extend their valuable contributions to the country?
Indian shuttler Sourabh Verma hogged the limelight for winning Rs.51 lakh Russian Open. Sourabh might have lost the first set but he didn’t give up so easily. He had a lot of catching up to do and so, he fought back and came from behind to clinch the men’s singles event and lifted Russian Open Badminton trophy at Vladivostok.
The 25-year-old shuttler defeated Japan’s Koki Watanabe, 18-21, 21-12, 21-17, and won his first title of the season. Sourabh had previously won the Chinese Taipei Masters in 2016 and finished runners-up at Bitburger Open the same year.
