Paduko to Saina on Overwhelming Media Attention
Deepika Padukone, a badminton player and child of badminton legend, Prakash Padukone expresses her regard for the up and coming badminton star, Saina Nehwal. After seeing her play in the local badminton play-offs, Padukone could not contain the excellent impression that the young athlete has set on her scale; especially with what she could do with a badminton shuttlecock.
In the recent Jakarta games, Saina grabbed a clean finish over Lin Wang of China. Wang is among the most powerful Chinese players in the badminton area, and the young Saina’s victory came as a refreshing record, not only among general badminton enthusiasts, but also among the Indian badminton followers. Padukone described Saina to exude the resistance and perseverance of a very promising badminton star. She mentioned Saina’s stressed and anxious countenance as she progressed through the game. Nonetheless, she applauded Saina’s determination to bring home the crown and give her nation another reason to be proud.
Padukone gained most of her knowledge from her extensive training under her father’s epic record in the country’s badminton history. Her life has been fully devoted to developing and honing her skills in the game. Over the years, she gained media attention, including the advertisers, quite similar to Saina’s road to badminton stardom. The glitters of popularity are precisely that concerned Padukone. She reminds Saina of the essence of her reputation, which fundamentally banks of her badminton performance. Letting the influences and offers of the media dominate her career may positively bring down, if not completely out of the athletic circle.
Supporters of Saina saw Padukone’s advice to be a good sign, especially coming from someone from a line of athletic giants, with her father and her sister, golfer Anisha Padukone. Saina’s guardians second Padukone’s words, especially with the sportstar’s rapid rise to fame and more tedious matches in line. Saina’s overwhelming media attention should not distract her of the rigid training she has to undergo for the upcoming national that will be instrumental in determining her involvement in this year’s world matches.
