Badminton legend #PrakashPadukone always focused on what was in his control. He followed his father’s advice and made the best of what he had, never letting things he didn’t have stand in his way. #NationalSportsDay#SportPLAYINGIndiapic.twitter.com/Elgjh1LPFK

When I hear @Vijay_Amritraj speak of his parents and the lengths to which they went to support him in becoming one of India's finest Tennis players, it warms my heart. Our families make so many sacrifices so that we may live our dreams. #NationalSportsDay#SportPLAYINGIndiapic.twitter.com/NyXwm4XD0t

In the 80s, when I was starting out in my own career, a strong Track & Field athlete was already blazing a trail for Indian sportswomen. To get to that point from a small town in Kerala was a remarkable feat. @PTUshaOfficial you paved the way #NationalSportsDay#SportPLAYINGIndiapic.twitter.com/kUp7MpKMEu

To me, #SunilGavaskar is the epitome of unwavering concentration & courage. To step out on the field against a team that was well-known for ferocious pace bowlers and still achieve one of his highest batting averages. All I can say is … Wow! #NationalSportsDay#SportPLAYINGIndiapic.twitter.com/2s8KRnu8O3

I've heard stories about #MajorDhyanChand practising Hockey under a moonlit sky as there were no floodlights in those days. He did what it took to fulfil his dream. That's what I call commitment.
