Abhinav Bindra:Beijing and Beyond: The day after!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The day after!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Monday, August 11, 2008 – 7:42 PM

They have all been telling me what a huge achievement winning Gold is. I realise that but frankly the enormity of the goodwill generated has caught me by surprise. Honestly enough it really has not changed me, I am still the same Abhinav who just a day ago was hanging around alone in my room in the Olympic village. Frankly, all the attention is a bit overwhelming. I am not much good at making loud public pronouncements. That in no way means that this is not the most intense experience of my life.
For more than a decade now my life has been all about my sport. In fact, I do not have a life beyond the confines of the 10m range. I have had a range built in my own home to cut down any possibility of distraction and to be able to practise my sport whenever the fancy strikes me. It all did pay off, didn't it?
It has all still not sunk in. I will post more once the feeling settles.
I ran away from all the media and official attention yesterday after I had done the bit I had do in keeping with my new-found status. Instead I chose to go to a quiet dinner with some friends.
I would like to reiterate that everyone who represents India at the Olympic Games has put in years of toil and sweat. I ask the Indian people to support our athletes more. It is fine to celebrate our achievements but it is just as important to keep up the backing when we are not on top of our game.
It is important for India to do better at Olympic sport as these are the true measure of a nation's sporting depth. I wish more private initiatives come up with corporate support apart from the backing of the government. The joy that the nation feels at my win is humbling. I just wish that this is repeated more and more often.
With our depth of talent and expanse of people I firmly believe India can be a world-class sporting power. What we need are precise systems. I will try to do my bit at grooming the next generation. I would like to appeal to each Indian to also do their bit in prodding us out of sporting complacency.

Strategic Enterprise Management Specialists said...: I'm overjoyed to see an Indian on the top rung of the Olympic ladder, and had goosebumps when I read about your achievement.
Your point about the hard-work of any (and every athlete) who makes it to these echelons is well stated.
May you, and many more of our fellow countrymen, have many more successes ...
Jai Hind.

RP said...: First Congrats to ABHINAV BINDRA !!!

Congress Ruled Most of the time in INDIA Vs Any other Non Congress GOVT.. CHINA Developed from 5 GOLD Medals in 80's to 20+ expecting this Year. Look at CHINA how it transformed from past 50 Years and look at INDIA where it is now???? If we stop corruption which is a patent of Congress GOVT in INDIA we can produce atleast 10-15 Abhinav Bhindras today with state sponser facilities.. Since he is from RICH Family and got his own funds for his practice.. CONGRESS SHOULD FEEL SHAME FOR THE CONDITION OF INDIA TODAY INSTEAD OF HANGING IN THE POWER. PEOPLE SHOULD OPEN EYES AND TEACH A GOOD LESSON FOR THIS CONDITION. WE ADAPT CRICKET WHICH IS WASTE OF TIME FOR A COUNTRY LIKE INDIA. SHAME SHAME SHAME WITH 1 Billion POPULATION. I THINK ITS TIME TO LOOK AT NEW GAMES AND OTHER THINGS IN COMING YEARS.; August 12, 2008 at 9:02 AM

I do understand, how a Sania Mirza or Col. Rathore would have felt on missing out.

And as an Indian, let me promise that I'll do my bit to help the sportsmen/women from my country.

At the same time, as of now the least I can do is Salute the person - who has brought home the biggest sporting award anyone can dream of.

Sathish said...: Abhinav- Your thoughts & opinion after winning the Gold ("support the athletes during the preparation as well, and not just after winning the gold") are equally impressive. You're also talking of a systemic approach to encourage adoption of sports in this nation. While you have the limelight, please highlight these points. I'd be glad to help in any way I can.; August 12, 2008 at 9:26 AM

It is all your effort defeating system. Your efforts has proved that if you have a will u will get it. Your appearance as I saw in tv in india proved that you have taken this win as win in any sports.

Your actions have spoken louder than entire boardrooms of executives, or indeed than a Parliament full of MPs.

You need not say another word, if that is not your style. I wish more people would do more and talk less,

You're also a role model in humility, which is a quality fast disappearing among the new indian sportsmen - thanks for shining the light in that direction too.

I think you will agree that you went "GREAT GUNS!!!"

I liked that. I also read you went through extensive training to an extent of brain mapping. I envy that. Overall, I think you are a cool dude. But it's just a gold. People in India are so fickle (so am I) that don't be surprised if they are disappointed with you if you don't win Gold in the next event :). I am no one to say this, but I'd love to see that you don't read too much into the hype. mostly everyone (including me) is likely a loser to post a comment here only after you succeeded, so don't trust us :-). But anyway, good job and thanks.; August 12, 2008 at 12:27 PM
Unknown said...: Congratulations Abhinav!Thanks for what you think and pinpointed on Indian sports in your last blog.Also it is very true that Indian media and Sponsoreres are only intersted when someone wins.In parallel they need to support and encourage who defeated.And we really need more private organization to encourage local talents.Besides Governments all parents also needs to play a key role here.As you are now role model please be focus on these areas to let our nation produce more sports icon.; August 12, 2008 at 12:34 PM

Roshan said...: Dear Abhinav,

You dont realize what you have achieved at this moment. Your name will be their for ever in the history of Indian olympics...!!!!!!!
I am one of the indian who loves other games other than so called bug "Cricket". Unfortunately most of the corporates, companies focusing on cricket rather than other games. Our so called industrialists are ready to buy Newcastle team spending billions of pounds...they dont even think that they can make a much more good team spending half the amount back in India...

Anyways, as Indian, I am proud of you, your hardwork, commitment etc. I would like to highlight one more point that, it all happened due to your personal interest, spending(your investment) etc. If you would have depended on our government or olympic associations you would have become one more ordinary citizen out of 108 crores!!; August 12, 2008 at 3:21 PM
Sunnie said...: Hi Abhinav,

Being older your are like my elder brother, you are the first person after my family who brought tears to my eyes, Since I am in US I didnt have direct access to your event on TV, but I kept a watch thru internet and kept refreshing , and the moment you hit the 10.8 I shouted all around the apartment , WE HAVE THE GOLD!!

We all are proud of you, be humble and God bless you.

Sachin Chavan said...: Dear Abhinav,

I was watching the medals ceremony live with my wife and we had an indescribable feeling. We kissed each other, sang the national anthem as it was being played and saluted you in the end! Congratulations and thanks for giving us this joy!

Your parents, coach, family and friends all deserve to soak in glory. I read about your single-minded determination over a decade which eventually led to the Gold. Was really amazed by your unflappable temperament, even after winning.

However, deep in my heart, I feel, now that you achieved what you set out to... you may want to let yourself free. Enjoy the vast diversities of life, make more closer friends, hang out... soak in what you may have avoided all these years. That would only make you an all-round person... as no achievement, even an Olympic gold is the ultimate in life. You know that!

Best wishes for a great multi-faceted future!

Dr SK Mittal said...: अभिनव बिंद्रा का अभिनन्दन

देश ओलम्पिक में शामिल तो होता था
११० करोड़ का देश शर्मिंदा वापिस होता था

अरबों खर्च का था सालो साल कोई हिसाब नही
एक भी एकल स्वर्ण था हमारे भाग में नही

हम विश्व नेता होने का दावा करते थे
लेकिन स्वर्ण पाने को तरसते थे

खेल भावना की मिसाल देते थे
अपने कर्म ठोक रो लेते थे

कभी ध्यान कभी मिल्खा कभी अमृत याद करते थे
कर्नेश्वरी और चौहान को आँखों पर रखते थे

पुरुश्कारो को अर्जुन राजीव पुकारते थे
देश के खिलाडियों को भर भर धिक्कारते थे

असली अर्जुन तो अभ्यास कर रहा था
अपने करतब को पैनी धार धार रहा था

सुबह पूरब से नया उजाला आया
देश में खुशीओं से भरा पैगाम लाया

अभिनव तुम देश की शान
भेद दिया ओलम्पिक का निसान

२५ साल के पंजाब के नवजवान
आधुनिक अर्जुन को देश का सलाम

आओ वापिस देश पलक बिछा इन्तजार में है
बिंद्रा के विजय अभियान उत्सव की त्यारी जोरों पे है

तुम्हारी विजय देश का भाग लिखा जाने वाला है
स्वर्ण नही, नवयुवको की प्रेरणा और संकल्प होने वाला है

बिंद्रा परिवार को हार्दिक बधाई; August 12, 2008 at 10:00 PM

i thought you also fall into people like previous sportsmen...but after reading your blog, you are just a normal person like me

thanks a lot for winning gold.
