Be it 'Mary Kom,' 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag,' or 'Dangal,' each one was inspiring in its own way. But my favourite is 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag.'
There are many defining moments in my journey.
Previously, people were like, 'She might win the tournament,' but now it's like, 'She should win the tournament.'
I have to keep moving and keep working hard.
Life has changed after Rio. Winning a silver medal was a huge moment for me. It has come with a lot of responsibilities.
Ups and downs will be happening; coming to the final and losing by a point or so should not matter.
Nagpur to Kanyakumari and Kashmir, future Olympic medallists can come from anywhere. It is the passion that drives you, not the city, provided you get enough facilities.
Life has changed both on and off the court after the Rio Olympics medal. I have a lot of confidence on the court now and feel anything is possible. I also feel that I have improved my game. Off the court, I do get recognised more now.
It is never the case that I will push myself more for the World Championships and play differently in a Super Series or vice-versa.
You have to keep working all the time. How much you learn, there is always room for learning; you will have to keep improving all the time.
I would love to act in a film if it is based on my life. But then it all depends on who is making it and how much time it would require for me to shoot.
I love to experiment with my looks and dresses on and off the court because I love to turn out very well. But, I must add here that just good-looking athletes can't do anything for their sport.
Sometimes it does upset you when you lose in the finals, or even in a quarterfinal or semifinal, especially when you think, 'Maybe I could have played better,' or even if you gave your 100 percent, and even then, you lose.
I put the good playing and game first, and money, prizes are secondary.
Every tournament is important for me.
I had once thought I would become a doctor but gave up on the thought soon enough. I took up the racquet instead. Later, when I saw my sister studying so much to become a doctor, I was like, 'Thank God I am a shuttler!'
Each tournament is different.
Each tournament is equally important.
Winning a tournament at the end of the year boosts your confidence a lot.
I consider the All England as like any normal super series tournament.
