Saina NehwalCertain stories of hardships, inspiration and passion catch our eye while some stories of the lesser-known athletes are never known.

On the road to Rio Olympics, Indian ace badminton player Saina Nehwal, in a video message, has silently appealed to her country that it’s time to move over those barriers and look at the Indian Olympic contingent as one team rather than a group of individual athletes.

The shuttler shared the video on Facebook.

Saina conveys that a lesser known athletes are as important as a star like herself.

Indians need to rethink the way they look at Olympians and treat them as they all are equal winners in their own right.
