Rankings are not so important. I am only focused on winning tournaments.

I am a human being. When you are frustrated, you do cry. It's more than once that I cried.

I love winning more than I love playing badminton. Winning is everything.

I think studies are really important and shouldn't be compromised.

Unlike most youngsters who have school as their 'second home' where they meet and make friends, for me playtime has been at the Gopichand Badminton Academy in Hyderabad. When I am not playing a tournament, my days are spent at the Academy with my coaches, physiotherapists and colleagues, who are like family. We laugh and have so much fun.

I am only about winning and getting better.
