There is a thin line between being confident and arrogant. This is one thing that our golden boy Neeraj Chopra certainly is aware of.

And those who following him after the Tokyo Olympics might be deceived into thinking that he rose to ranks only after winning the historic gold medal.

Below is a video, where Neeraj was once at an event asked about his inspiration behind his long hairstyle. He was asked if it was actor Shah Rukh Khan or cricketer Ishant Sharma.  

“Hum khud hi hain…nobody. I like keeping my hair long,” was Neeraj’s epic reply, which left everyone, amused. Neeraj first came into limelight after he became the junior world champion with a world record throw of 86.84m in Poland.  

Neeraj’s confidence is still intact, even as he has trimmed his hair.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
