Abhinav Bindra gets a 'paw-dorable' present for Neeraj Chopra, Jwala Gutta reacts

Abhinav Bindra created history at the Beijing Olympics in 2008, where he won a gold medal in 10m air rifle. And after a long wait, 23-year-old Neeraj Chopra joined him by clinching the gold medal in the men's javelin final at Tokyo 2020.

After standing at the podium alone for 13 years, Abhinav Bindra, independent India's first Olympic gold-medalist, was joined by India's javelin star Neeraj Chopra in the elite stand after his golden haul at the Tokyo Olympics.

India's Olympic heroes met with each other, a photo of which was shared by Bindra on Twitter. Sharing the photo, Bindra hoped the upcoming edition in Paris in 2024 turn out to be equally good for Neeraj as the one in Tokyo. He also gave Neeraj a puppy, which saw a very happy reaction from former shuttler Jwala Gutta, calling it a very 'thoughtful' gesture.
