Indian hurdler Jyothi Yarraji clinched a gold medal at the Asian Athletics Championships, posting a proud moment for Indian athletics beyond the cricket pitch. This video captures public reactions — admiration for her achievement mixed with frustration that sports other than cricket often get sidelined by mainstream support and media attention.
Hosted by Mandava Sai Kumar on Telugu Vaadi TV, the report reflects on how Yarraji’s victory highlights the need for broader backing for non-cricket sports in India, and whether the country’s sporting culture should evolve to celebrate successes across all disciplines.
