“I think judging a shuttle is different everywhere, so there is a drift, but you have to be used to it. We can’t complain, as I think it is same for all.”

You win some and lose some. It’s all part of the game. You have to take it in a very positive way.

I think you can never be a complete player.

I think each player has a different style of play, and every match is different.

Definitely, the aim is to become No.1.

You have to keep on learning all the time unless and until you become perfect in all the strokes.

There are many defining moments in my journey.

Each tournament is different.

Every time I go on to the court, people expect me to get a medal. It is tough, and I can’t win always, but I still have to go out there and give my best.

I have a lot of hunger to win the big titles.

Many players are of the same standard; it all depends on how your strokes land on the other side of court.

I love to experiment with my looks and dresses on and off the court because I love to turn out very well. But, I must add here that just good-looking athletes can’t do anything for their sport.

I have worked really hard since the age of eight, so each phase of my life is equally important.

It was important for me to get a super series title.

I am thankful to my parents. They have done many sacrifices.

I am really lucky that I got such good coaches and everything I wanted, right from the infrastructure to proper coaching.

I don’t fear anyone. I just concentrate on giving my best.

You have to be a freak in order to be different.

Man intends one thing, but Allah intends another.

What I’m saying is, when different experiments give you the same result, it is no longer subject to your opinion. That’s the good thing about science: It’s true whether or not you believe in it. That’s why it works.

There are many people of color who are very talented.

Well, these sad and hopeless obstacles are welcome in one sense, for they enable us to look with indifference upon the cruel satires that Fate loves to indulge in.

I listen to different artists. I open my mind to different artists.

What I’m not sure about, is if our lives have been so different from the lives of the people we save. We all complete. Maybe none of us really understand what we’ve lived through, or feel we’ve had enough time.

I just know that I’m a fan of all different kinds of genres. You’re supposed to be free doing music, and that’s how I feel.
