His Journey in his words

From 400m sprinter to national calisthenics athlete the journey was quite challenging. Quitted sprinting at my peak due to a major hamstring injury after that...calisthenics was the only way for me to keep going. The competitive spirit was never gone and the dream to represent India is still on. Injury is a part of the game. Even if the game changed spirit never will.
