Tell us about your first meeting with Mahesh Bhupati
When I was 16 and Mahesh was 15, I had a dream that we would win Wimbledon together and be world champions. When I asked him that would you like to win Wimbledon together, he just laughed at me and said 바카라you are crazy!바카라 After which I remember telling him, 바카라Yes, I am crazy, but we will play it together and win it together.바카라
What is the best part about 바카라Break Point바카라?
바카라Break Point바카라 shows that even though you are a champion, you have vulnerability because you are a human being as well and how do you deal with those human emotions is very important. And one of the best parts of 바카라Break Point바카라 is the journey that Mahesh and I have been through with Ashwiny and Nitesh. We got to talk about certain conversations which were left unsaid for twenty years and with having a little more maturity and wisdom now we are able to laugh at some of the situations. For me 'Break Point' has been a great journey and through all the episodes you will see different nuances of the perspectives of each of us. We didn바카라t have actors playing our roles, we did it ourselves.
What was the preparation for the docu-series like?
There was no preparation required for 바카라Break Point바카라 because you have lived your life and you are doing it yourself. The best thing about Nitesh and Ashwiny was they just allowed us to be ourselves and we just narrated our story. We just spoke and narrated our stories. So, it is raw and human. A big gratitude goes out to Zee 5 for believing in our story.
What is the take away from the series for the young generation?
Particularly from my life it was like my dream was to emulate my father and win an Olympic medal. I wanted to prove that we Indians can be champion to any field wanted to be in. So, for me it is a lot about patriotism, community and a lot about people. It is basically about being true to yourself and showing how are champions made. When you watch what Mahesh and me have done, you will realise that his strengths were my weaknesses and his weaknesses were my strengths. Through our stories we tried to show that in team sport, how we can conquer the world of tennis. I want to inspire people to be the best they can be even if it is through my flaws, what not to do and what to do, my strengths on how champions are made and how to build a team. These are all learning lessons. I am sensitive enough and rugged enough to live that story live and learn from both success and failure.
How did your family deal with the bitterness between you and Mahesh?
Both our families tried everything possible to keep us together. There were times when Mahesh바카라s parents and sister were trying to protect him. And I know likewise for my family, they wanted to do the best for me. But what has been amazing about this whole Leander-Mahesh journey is that there were so many people involved starting from coaches, trainers, friends, siblings and in 바카라Break Point바카라 you get to see their nuances on how they reacted to the whole situation. I feel a lot of these perspectives even Mahesh and me were no aware of till the time we made 바카라Break Point바카라. But it is really beautifully told.
