"Puppy Love": Saina Nehwal Shares Adorable Video With Her Mother And Dog

In the video, ace badminton player Saina Nehwal's mother looks happy as they fuss over their dog.

Badminton star Saina Nehwal on Thursday shared an adorable video with her dog on Instagram. In the short clip, the former badminton world number one can be seen sitting on a sofa and pampering her fluffy friend along with her mother, Usha Nehwal. As adorable as the ace Indian shuttler's pet looks, it's Saina's mother who stole the show. Usha looks delightful as well as clueless in the video. One moment she is pampering the puppy and the next she is seen showering Saina with love. "Puppy love," Saina captioned the photo, along with three heart emojis. The video was a huge hit among Saina's followers. At the time of writing, over 68,000 people had watched it. Meanwhile, Saina's chances to qualify for the Tokyo Olympic Games took a further blow earlier this month after the Malaysia Open Super 750 tournament, one of badminton's last two Olympic qualifying events, was postponed due to rising COVID-19 cases in the host country.
