उत्तर
| J.P: | Well Vijetha, tell us something about your early life. |
| V.B.: | To begin with, ours was a family of doctors. My parents, my grandparents, aunts, and uncles have made a name for themselves in the field of medicine. Being the only child of my parents, it was natural that I too become part of the same field. But I was a dedicated sportsperson. My mother realised my special talent in cricket when I was in high school and since then there was no looking back! |
| J.P.: | So then was it your mother who encouraged you to play cricket? |
| V.B.: | Yes. She was my encouragement and my support. I am successful today only because of her steady and continuous support. |
| J.P.: | What was the most difficult obstacle in your journey to excellence? |
| V.B.: | It was the mentality of the people around me, who constantly tried to discourage me from pursuing cricket. ‘What’s the future in that sport?’ they would ask. But that only made me work harder. |
| J.P.: | What message would you like to give to young girls, who wish to make their mark in non-traditional sports? |
| V.B.: | I would only say ‘Keep going and never give up’, because when the going gets tough, the tough get going. |
| J.P.: | Thank you so much, Vijetha. It was a pleasure to learn about you and your journey towards success. On behalf of our school, we wish that you make a mark, both in the national and international format of the sport. All the best! |
