My Subconscious Mind Envisions Me On Olympic Podium: Manika Batra

By IANS News July 23, 2024 • 11:22 AM View: 202

South Asian Games: As star Indian paddler Manika Batra is gearing up for her third consecutive Olympics appearance at Paris 2024, she is determined to surpass her Tokyo 2020 feat, where she became the first Indian woman paddler to reach the round of 32 in singles table tennis, and has already envisionsed herself on Paris Olympics podium.

Manika's career is adorned with multiple podium finishes, including four medals from the 2018 Commonwealth Games. The art of positive visualisation plays a crucial role in her motivation.

Reflecting on her approach to matches on JioCinema's 'The Dreamers', Manika stated, "Winning or losing isn't my focus; I want to give my 100% every time I step on the court."
