I never believed that India could win a medal in badminton because the competition is so tough.

Badminton is not a popular sport in India.

Badminton is not as glamorous as cricket.

I have always wanted an Olympic medal. I always wanted to see India's national flag going up at the podium.

Badminton will gain momentum in a big manner after my win in Olympics. More players will participate in the game now.

I don't think I have the ability or patience to teach badminton to others.
