00:00I've worked hard for so many years and I've achieved a level here.
00:04I feel proud. I even cry when I see India's flag fluttering in another country.
00:13Actually, we've started this time so we won't stop.
00:16Like shooters, Indian shooting and everyone has supported a lot.
00:20How did you win for India?
00:22Tell us what this medal means to you, the medal you've won for the country.
00:27First of all, I'd like to congratulate Manu and Sarbjeet because they've started the medal this time.
00:37Winning an Olympic medal is the dream of every athlete.
00:43I've worked hard for so many years and I've achieved a level here.
00:49After this, I'll do hard work and I'll be proud in the next Olympics.
00:57Tell us about your process.
00:59You finished 7th in the first round and you were in 6th position in the first round.
01:07You reached the podium from there.
01:09Tell us about that journey.
01:11How did you keep your composure and keep shooting despite that?
01:18I didn't look at the scoreboard.
01:20I didn't look at my rank.
01:24I just focused on my procedure and my follow through.
01:30I focused on my breathing and my body should be calm.
01:36That brought me to this level.
01:41Like you said, shooters did a great job this time.
01:45Like you said, Manu and Sarbjeet did a great job.
01:48They opened the floodgates and now the medal is being rained on.
01:50Do you think you'll be able to do as well as you did in the last two Olympics?
01:58We started this time and we won't stop.
02:03Shooters, Indian shooting and everyone has supported a lot for shooting.
02:08Federation, Sai, their families, athletes, support staff.
02:13Everyone has supported the shooting team and the athletes.
02:15So, it's their hard work also and not only athletes' hard work.
02:21A lot of people also work hard for it.
02:23So, we thank you to all India and everyone.
02:27When you climbed the podium for the country and the national flag was going up,
02:31describe that feeling as an Indian, as a Bharatiya.
02:33Obviously, it's a proud feeling.
02:36I also shed tears when we wave the Indian flag in another country.
02:43And when our national anthem is played,
02:47no matter what the rank is, when the flag goes up,
02:52there is a strange feeling inside.
02:55Like we made India proud.
02:57Your story is very similar to that of great Mahendra Singh Dhoni.
03:00You started as a T.C. and he also started as a T.C.
03:03You flew to Kharagpur and Pune.
03:05So, tell us about that journey.
03:07You came from there and won a medal for the country.
03:09Explain this whole journey.
03:11Who were your role models who helped you get into shooting?
03:14Shooting...
03:16My father had enrolled me in sports since childhood.
03:22And Krita Prabodhini, which is a scheme of the Maharashtra government,
03:26through that I got into shooting.
03:28And because of that, the support of the Maharashtra government,
03:33and after that, I did shooting there for 6 years.
03:38And I played in the national and international competitions.
03:41And after that, as my interest in shooting increased,
03:46because I love shooting,
03:48and because of that, I just enjoy the shooting whenever I go on the range.
03:52And when the ma'am tells me to take rest,
03:57I can't resist taking rest.
04:00So, I can take only one day or two days rest.
04:02And after that, I feel like going on the range.
04:08Not even for the shooting, but just to go there and talk to my friends,
04:13spend some time there, stay there.
04:15It's like second home to me at this time.
04:18Will you dedicate it to someone?
04:20India, my family, and my supporting staff, everyone.
04:24Like everyone, yeah.
