Even before the javelin thrower could add more, the PM knew who he was. "Iss baar jinki reels sabse jyada popular hui.
(One of those whose reels got popular this time)," the Prime Minister said, adding, "One of them is you and the other one is Sheetal Devi (Para Archer who won the bronze medal)." The whole contingent of medal winners from the Paris Paralympics in the 'meet & greet' event, including sports minister Mansukh Mandaviya and Devendra Jhajharia, President of the Paralympic Committee of India, could not control their laughter.
The PM was talking about the viral video from the Paralympics, where Navdeep was seen celebrating aggressively following his triumph in the men's javelin F41 event that initially won him a silver.
"Have you seen your video? How do you perform with such aggression," the PM asked Navdeep Singh, to which he had a valid reply.
"Last time (Tokyo Paralympics), I finished fourth. Before leaving for Paris, I had promised you, it has been fulfilled." The video had the choice of words that cannot be retold.
