Welcome to another episode of A Century Of Stories presented by IDFC FIRST Bank!

Today, we dive into the extraordinary journey of Abhinav Bindra, who took the shot that changed our nation's sporting landscape forever. From being the youngest participant at the 1998 Commonwealth Games to clinching India's first-ever individual Olympic gold medal at the 2008 Beijing Games, Abhinav Bindra etched his name in Olympic history.

We'll explore how this shooting prodigy rose through the ranks and overcame mental barriers to become a Khel Ratna awardee and an Olympic legend.

As India’s torchbearer at the Paris 2024 Olympics and an awardee of the Olympic Order, let’s reflect on Bindra's impact on Indian sports and his legacy for the current generation of shooters competing at Paris.
