MUMBAI: Athlete Neeraj Chopra’s big accomplishment has wowed everyone.

Neeraj got his parents to their first flight, a moment that touched everyone who heard about it or saw the pictures. Sharing a few pictures on his Instagram handle, he wrote, “A small dream of mine came true today as I was able to take my parents on their first flight.”
The star athlete managed to silence every hate monger in the country by giving a statement in favour of Pakistani javelin thrower Arshad Nadeem. This extremely necessary gesture came with the risk of losing following, but Neeraj did not think about it. “I would request everyone to please not use me and my comments as a medium to further your vested interests and propaganda. Sports teaches us to be together and united. I'm extremely disappointed to see some of the reactions from the public on my recent comments,” read his comment.
