Thankful to Siddharth Kak and Renuka Shahane for a wonderful introduction and for giving a wonderful opportunity to give a wide media coverage through Surabhi's team. Back in the 90's television had only two major channels DD1 and DD-Metro. With this opportunity, all the country uplifted and supported me to get the highest recognition in the Limca Book of Records, to be India's First Pioneer Woman Body Builder.
Very blessed to have a wonderful, dedicated coach Dr.Shri Arun Datar, and all my special gym buddies who always uplifted me to do more. They were my strength. Most thanks to my parents, as it must have been a life-changing experience for them and to support my sport, when it was still considered to be a male-dominated society.
From 2005 onwards, women's body-building in India has completely changed and has climbed up to new heights and amazing women have participated in International IFBB competitions. Glad to have interacted with Deepika Chowdhury an IFBB Pro from Pune. To name a few, I do wish to meet other wonderful IFBB Pros: Rita Jairath mam, Kiran Dembla mam, as I admire their hard work, dedication, and consistency.
Thank you!
