Industrialist Anand Mahindra never fails to treat us to the most engaging content through his social media updates. The Chairman of Mahindra Group, who has 10.5 million followers on Twitter, regularly piques their interest with funny, informative, and trending topics. He also shares inspiring stories of people who have achieved great success in their respective fields. In his recent post, he shared the video of 19-year-old Prathamesh Samadhan Jawkar who recently won a gold medal for India at the Archery World Cup in Shanghai.

The video, originally posted by life coach Sudhir Puthran shows, Mr. Jawkar defeating world number 1 Mike Schloesser of the Netherlands to grab a maiden World Cup gold medal. He had earlier eliminated the Korean duo of Kim Jongho and Choi Yonghee and continued his giant-killing act to defeat the Dutchman 149-148 in the men’s compound individual final, as per PTI.

Sharing the video, Mr Mahindra wrote, ”Just incredible. He seems like he has nerves of steel and a laser-sharp focus. A champion in the making. You’re right, @SudhirPuthran. I hadn’t heard of him until today but will track him from now on. I hope he triumphs in the final in Hermosillo in September. May he Rise!”
