Nikhat Zareen's Inspiring Journey to Paris 2024
Nikhat Zareen, the reigning World Champion and Commonwealth Games Gold medalist, recently shared her inspiring journey and aspirations for the upcoming Paris 2024 Olympics in an interview with Dinesh Karthik on JioCinema's 'Get Set Gold.'
Zareen's path to success has been marked by both triumphs and setbacks. In 2019, she faced disappointment when she was denied a trial for the World Championships in the 51kg division. Undeterred, she raised her voice and demanded a fair chance, eventually securing a trial and proving her worth.
Despite losing that bout, Zareen remained determined and focused on her goal of representing India at the Olympics. Her hard work and dedication paid off in 2022 when she became the World Champion in the Flyweight category. She further cemented her status as a global force by winning the Light Flyweight division in 2023.
Zareen's journey is a testament to her resilience and unwavering belief in herself. She has overcome obstacles and used setbacks as motivation to push herself to greater heights. As she prepares for her Olympic debut in Paris, she is excited about the opportunity to represent her country on the world's biggest sporting stage.
"This is my first Olympics. Of course, I'm very excited about the Olympics, and there will be a lot of expectations from me," Zareen said. "But I'll take that expectation as a motivation, and I'll push myself inside the ring. This expectation is not a burden, I've always dreamt of representing India at the Olympics and I'll take that as a blessing."
Zareen's achievements have not only brought glory to India but have also inspired countless young athletes. Her story is a reminder that with determination and perseverance, anything is possible. As she embarks on her Olympic journey, Zareen is poised to make history and leave an indelible mark on the world of boxing.
