look at vijendra singh , saina mirza and crickets, once they get fame all are busy in making money but this girl has real potential she stays away from media hype and is always focused and really wish her good luc.....
Saina lost semis but she had already lost at home when the Indian babudom refused to give her the passport... Just shows if a juionr world champion has to beg for her passport, what plight do common man has to undergo for such documents. Well done, Saina. Remember to hire a dalal next time you need help from our beaurucracy...
saina raising the badmiton in india,defenitely india will get gold in badmiton in 2012 olympic.All indians support to badmiton & other game,surely INDIA get many medals in 2012 olympic. by S.SAKTHIVEL.
Congratulations to Saina Nehwal for making India proud at the world masters championships.Only advice : work hard and stay focused . Remember its your game that gives you all the recognition so keep the progress graph going up otherwise look at Sania Mirza who became the advt. queen and Tennis became second priority and now no one wants her as her game has slipped to low levels and she slowly fades away from the centerstage.

What is she now.... out of the first hundred in the international rankings.She had talent but her mind was too distracted. For her sake hope she bounces back otherwise she will be soon forgotten by all.Right Sania..Clear Hai!!!!!!
I am not sure why evrybody is behind the indian cricketer's ass as soon as someone in other sports field does a magnificent job. Cricketers arent doing anything less . Remember cricket wudnt have been such a passion and craze in our country hadnt it been for the World cup win in 83. So its not like they are doing nothin and gettin all the accolades. And BCCI is the richest sports body in the world ( in the entire world spanning all sports ), so they could afford such riches for the cricketers. Just try to point out any other sports body other than BCCI run as proffesionaly , and you would be stunned to know the answer is a BIG NO. One more important thing, ders been plenty said bout the accolades d cricketers recieve but what about the reaction dey get from the public when dey dont do well. Apart from crickters would anyother sportsperson get reactions ranging as extreme as stones being thrown towards der house . They wudnt even be able to get out of their house if dey dont perform well. So i guess the good things also coincides with the bad things dese cricketers have ot bear. This was not meant to belittle anyother sports . Due recognition and accolades should be given to all others who make the country proud..But please please refraing from getting in to the back of the cricketers for god sake !!
and btw...Congrats to Saina..she has really captured the nation's imagination with her performance. Well done girl ...We are Proud of you !!!!!
Now then!Look at the performance of all other sportspersons apart from CRICKET.SAINA-Badminton,BIJENDRA AKHIL JITENDRA DINESH-Boxing,ANAND-Chess,ABHINAV GAGAN-Shooting,SUSHIL-Wrestling,P.DOGRA-Wrestling,INDIAN NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAM,SANTOSH JADAV AND ORS LADIES-Boxing r to cite a few examples.Still the govt. and corporates ran after Cricket and sometimes behind SANIA MIRZA-L.Tennis (although by now she is a lost case simply because of her over-confidence,pride,off-focus and too much addiction to publicity and media-affinity,still her initial performances deserve accolades).GOVT should now distribute it's love and care to all other sports ,Media should give due importance to all other sports and not just lick the CRICKETERS only and run even to their bedrooms and collect bogus news and Corporates should run behind other sports personalities like those mentioned even if their faces r not photogenic----We r waiting for that day when the present or next generation should have lots and lots of sports personalities apart from SACHIN-SAURAV-SEHBAGS as their sport-heroes,should know about all sports played in INDIA and be proud to take up that sport as his/her future profession.ANYWAY-"WELL DONE SAINA!
