Elfin Recite

Sharp shooter Abhinav Bindra hit the bull’s eye at the Beijing Olyimpics. However, even as we bask in the glow of his golden glory, it has to be stressed that he won it pretty much in his own steam. With a shooting range at home, and a foreign coach, his affluent parents invested everything into his training. Shy, reticent and totally focussed on his sport, to the exclusion of all other interests (he sees them as intrusions), Abhinav is using his win to mobilise support for other athletes. His attitude, mentality leads him throughout his shooting round and bagged a stunning gold medal. Abhinav Bindra, the youngest Indian ever to win gold at the Olympics.
