About this listen

Olympic gold medalist Abhinav Bindra joins Neha Bedi on The Life Savers Show to unravel what it truly takes to be a champion. From the relentless discipline of hard work—"No matter how much talent you possess, if you don’t supplement it with consistent hard work, you’ll never achieve your goal"—to the art of failing well, Abhinav shares lessons on resilience. He reflects on obsession as a double-edged sword ("If you don’t give enough to your talent, you abuse it—but if you give too much, you abuse it too") and why balance defines longevity. Plus, his candid take on India’s sports culture: "70% of schools don’t have playgrounds. How do we make kids physically active?" A masterclass in grit and grace.
