By IANS News June 10, 2024 • 15:46 PM View: 348

Get Set Gold: Reigning Olympic champion Neeraj Chopra said he will not leave any stone unturned to defend his gold medal in next month's Paris Olympics as he has learned how to handle pressure and channalise it into motivation.

Chopra made history in Tokyo 2020 by becoming the first Indian to win a gold medal in a track-and-field event with his 87.58m throw to seal the win in the men’s javelin throw.

Ahead of Paris 2024, Chopra spoke with Dinesh Karthik on JioCinema’s ‘Get Set Gold’ and discussed what makes an Olympic Champion, and the pressure he will carry into Paris 2024, while teaching Karthik the basics of the sport.
