In Himanshu’s case, when his Rio Olympics greco-roman wrestling family friend – who has grown into the status of family chacha – demanded that the ghar ka beta try wrestling, the family caved easily.
All it took was a national level wrestler to deliver an epic beatdown to pump the brakes on the fleeting thought of wrestling that Himanshu had been prodded into.
But Himanshu can take heart from his performance in the final six shots of the event.
But Himanshu kept both at bay, especially with his first three shots – a near perfect 10.8, followed by two 10.6s.
But for a shooter that only started taking the sport seriously post the pandemic, a home junior World Cup gold serves as a welcome boost.
