Great initiative, but let's not forget India needs systemic changes in sports infrastructure. Individual efforts like this are commendable, but we need government policies that support athletes at grassroots level across all states.

Dara Singh was our childhood superhero, and now his son is creating real-life heroes! Hope Vaishnavi gets the same legendary status one day. Indian women wrestlers are already making waves globally - one more champion in the making! ✨
