1
00:00:18,958 --> 00:00:21,666
Girls belong at home,
2
00:00:21,750 --> 00:00:24,208
not on the sports field.
3
00:00:24,291 --> 00:00:26,125
Sports are meant only for boys.
4
00:00:27,583 --> 00:00:30,666
Girls should cook,
5
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,416
look after their home and raise children,
that's their role.
6
00:00:35,625 --> 00:00:37,583
I won't allow my daughter to work.
7
00:00:38,500 --> 00:00:41,041
If she wishes to,
she can work after marriage.
8
00:00:41,125 --> 00:00:42,708
That's for her husband to decide.
9
00:00:43,083 --> 00:00:47,916
I won't allow my daughter
to participate in sports.
10
00:00:50,125 --> 00:00:52,875
Often I feel like answering back,
11
00:00:53,458 --> 00:00:54,416
but then I feel
12
00:00:55,666 --> 00:00:58,291
if I respond with words,
people might forget.
13
00:00:58,583 --> 00:01:01,791
But if I respond with my arrows,
they'll never forget.
14
00:02:09,125 --> 00:02:13,916
I hope girls in India
who face many obstacles
15
00:02:14,500 --> 00:02:19,375
look at me for inspiration to rise above
their problems
16
00:02:19,458 --> 00:02:21,250
and fight to follow their dreams
17
00:02:22,750 --> 00:02:25,541
to pursue their ambitions.
18
00:03:01,041 --> 00:03:05,333
My name is Deepika Kumari
and this is my second Olympic Games.
19
00:03:05,583 --> 00:03:07,958
My ultimate goal is gold.
20
00:03:08,750 --> 00:03:10,708
Because nothing is greater than this.
21
00:03:10,958 --> 00:03:11,916
Once more.
22
00:03:12,625 --> 00:03:14,125
Please don't say that.
23
00:03:22,625 --> 00:03:24,875
Olympics, nothing is greater than this!
24
00:03:32,625 --> 00:03:35,666
When you think about standing
on that podium
25
00:03:35,750 --> 00:03:39,208
what goes through your mind?
26
00:03:39,291 --> 00:03:41,583
Can you describe that hunger?
27
00:03:42,916 --> 00:03:45,166
Obviously, no one fights
for Silver or Bronze.
28
00:03:45,250 --> 00:03:47,291
Everyone dreams
of winning a gold medal.
29
00:03:47,375 --> 00:03:50,791
You have to work extremely hard
30
00:03:51,083 --> 00:03:53,375
to achieve that gold medal.
31
00:03:54,083 --> 00:03:56,833
I always dreamt...
32
00:03:58,041 --> 00:04:01,791
that the coach who taught me
33
00:04:02,458 --> 00:04:05,291
when I'm on the
podium accepting my Olympic medal,
34
00:04:05,375 --> 00:04:07,125
I would like to receive it from my coach.
35
00:04:07,833 --> 00:04:09,791
Well, that's my dream.
36
00:04:09,875 --> 00:04:10,833
And now,
37
00:04:11,541 --> 00:04:14,458
another Olympics is approaching...
So I'm ready.
38
00:04:20,333 --> 00:04:25,166
So, take us back in time. Tell us
about your background and your journey.
39
00:04:49,083 --> 00:04:50,916
{\an8}I'm from Ratu.
40
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,166
There's nothing for girls to do there.
41
00:04:58,375 --> 00:04:59,875
I always felt like playing,
42
00:04:59,958 --> 00:05:04,708
but my Mum never let me out of the house,
because I'm the eldest child.
43
00:05:05,458 --> 00:05:07,041
I had to help with house work
44
00:05:07,125 --> 00:05:11,500
like washing clothes and other chores
which is why my Mum never let me play
45
00:05:11,583 --> 00:05:14,500
for fear that people might say,
"She's left her daughter out."
46
00:05:14,583 --> 00:05:16,625
That's how narrow-minded they are.
47
00:05:19,625 --> 00:05:24,458
{\an8}My Mum works in a small village hospital.
48
00:05:26,041 --> 00:05:29,000
{\an8}There are no working women in Ratu,
only housewives.
49
00:05:29,791 --> 00:05:31,750
- You see that yellow one?
- This one?
50
00:05:31,833 --> 00:05:36,291
My Mum is my biggest inspiration. Like
her, I wanted to stand on my own two feet.
51
00:05:37,291 --> 00:05:39,666
I loved stealing vegetables
52
00:05:39,750 --> 00:05:44,208
from the fields, especially corn.
53
00:05:44,291 --> 00:05:47,166
My friends and I were experts
at stealing vegetables.
54
00:05:47,250 --> 00:05:49,291
Stolen food tastes so much better.
55
00:05:49,375 --> 00:05:52,041
Then...
56
00:05:52,375 --> 00:05:55,833
we would fry and eat this.
57
00:05:57,583 --> 00:05:58,875
Mum left early in the morning,
58
00:05:58,958 --> 00:06:02,833
which is why I'm closer to my dad,
as I've spent more time with him.
59
00:06:02,916 --> 00:06:04,083
What are you doing?
60
00:06:08,708 --> 00:06:10,125
Enough!
61
00:06:10,208 --> 00:06:13,708
There's no need for you to sweep the road.
62
00:06:15,250 --> 00:06:17,125
My dad drives a rickshaw.
63
00:06:17,750 --> 00:06:18,916
He's not very educated,
64
00:06:19,791 --> 00:06:21,625
but he knows a lot about
65
00:06:21,708 --> 00:06:24,750
the little things in life.
66
00:06:25,625 --> 00:06:28,583
{\an8}Whenever he speaks,
I just feel like listening.
67
00:06:30,125 --> 00:06:32,958
{\an8}We were very happy
when Deepika was born.
68
00:06:33,500 --> 00:06:35,750
{\an8}She was a healthy child at 5 kilograms.
69
00:06:36,375 --> 00:06:39,250
She had curious eyes.
70
00:06:39,666 --> 00:06:43,041
She was born on the roadside.
71
00:06:58,125 --> 00:07:00,666
My Mum was never paid on time.
72
00:07:00,750 --> 00:07:04,041
She would get her salary once
in three to four months.
73
00:07:04,958 --> 00:07:07,208
That's why we had far too many problems.
74
00:07:07,583 --> 00:07:10,291
There were days
when we didn't have any food.
75
00:07:13,375 --> 00:07:15,250
Our house was made of mud.
76
00:07:15,333 --> 00:07:16,916
Whenever it rained
77
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:18,833
or there was a thunderstorm,
78
00:07:18,916 --> 00:07:20,791
the roof would leak.
79
00:07:20,875 --> 00:07:24,333
So we would keep pots and pans
on the floor to avoid flooding.
80
00:07:29,250 --> 00:07:31,583
We lived... in this half
81
00:07:31,666 --> 00:07:34,541
and my Uncle and Aunt
lived in the other half,
82
00:07:36,583 --> 00:07:40,958
They didn't like the fact that my Mum
worked and that caused a lot of fights.
83
00:07:42,500 --> 00:07:45,208
At times, they would beat my Mum.
84
00:07:47,208 --> 00:07:48,833
{\an8}Yes, I used to beat her.
85
00:07:49,250 --> 00:07:51,291
{\an8}It's no big deal.
86
00:07:56,333 --> 00:07:59,500
When she was three years old,
87
00:07:59,583 --> 00:08:01,708
we passed by a roadside vendor
88
00:08:02,291 --> 00:08:05,750
who was selling a small clay house.
We still have it.
89
00:08:07,750 --> 00:08:11,750
So, Deepika picked it up and said:
90
00:08:12,166 --> 00:08:14,041
"Papa, this is a helicopter."
91
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,166
She lifted the roof and said,
"Papa, you,
92
00:08:18,250 --> 00:08:20,375
me and Mum will sit in this
93
00:08:20,458 --> 00:08:22,958
and fly away from here."
94
00:08:25,958 --> 00:08:27,958
I'm probably the only girl
95
00:08:28,041 --> 00:08:30,458
who left the village at such a young age.
96
00:08:31,166 --> 00:08:34,083
Girls have no opportunities there.
97
00:08:34,166 --> 00:08:37,541
Their parent marry them off
by the age of 18.
98
00:08:39,541 --> 00:08:41,833
If I hadn't left, I'm sure
99
00:08:41,916 --> 00:08:44,666
I would have been married
off by 18 or 19.
100
00:08:50,166 --> 00:08:52,958
I wanted to get far away
from that village life
101
00:08:53,041 --> 00:08:55,833
and escape from that
miserable situation.
102
00:09:04,875 --> 00:09:08,041
{\an8}I was 12 years old
when I first heard about archery.
103
00:09:09,291 --> 00:09:13,083
Someone told me
about an academy in Seraikella,
104
00:09:14,166 --> 00:09:17,541
and most importantly,
that it was free of charge.
105
00:09:17,625 --> 00:09:21,000
I didn't need to pay any fees also,
106
00:09:21,083 --> 00:09:24,208
food and clothes were provided for.
107
00:09:26,333 --> 00:09:29,958
When I first met Deepika in 2006
she was very frail.
108
00:09:30,833 --> 00:09:32,916
{\an8}She came with her parents.
109
00:09:33,083 --> 00:09:37,875
{\an8}The three of them traveled
130 kilometers on a scooter.
110
00:09:39,583 --> 00:09:43,458
The coach said,
"She's so weak! How will she do this?"
111
00:09:44,791 --> 00:09:47,625
Deepika got upset
112
00:09:47,708 --> 00:09:49,583
and felt she'd lost her chance.
113
00:09:49,666 --> 00:09:55,083
She took me aside and said, "Mum, may I
say something to him?" I said, "Go ahead."
114
00:09:55,166 --> 00:09:58,458
She said, "Give me three months.
115
00:09:58,541 --> 00:10:03,375
If I'm not good enough,
you can kick me out of the academy."
116
00:10:04,916 --> 00:10:07,750
The coach agreed. I was very happy.
117
00:10:08,875 --> 00:10:11,541
I wasn't really interested in archery
at the time.
118
00:10:11,625 --> 00:10:14,583
I went there because my family condition
was very bad.
119
00:10:14,666 --> 00:10:18,458
There were constant fights at home
due to shortage of money.
120
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,416
I thought, if I left home,
121
00:10:21,500 --> 00:10:23,416
there would be one less burden.
122
00:10:25,833 --> 00:10:27,625
This used to be our kitchen...
123
00:10:28,208 --> 00:10:30,625
we used to store food back here
124
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,416
and cook here.
125
00:10:33,500 --> 00:10:36,291
We used to wash the dishes over there.
126
00:10:38,625 --> 00:10:41,666
We had three rooms.
127
00:10:41,750 --> 00:10:43,833
There were no fans, just a bed.
128
00:10:43,916 --> 00:10:46,000
No cupboard or any other furniture.
129
00:10:46,750 --> 00:10:49,333
No bathrooms either,
we bathed in the river.
130
00:10:52,541 --> 00:10:55,208
One day, my daughter fell ill.
131
00:10:55,958 --> 00:10:59,166
She got boils on her body
because the river was like sewage.
132
00:10:59,791 --> 00:11:02,916
We had to admit her to a hospital.
I felt terrible.
133
00:11:04,583 --> 00:11:07,458
She faced many difficulties
there for a year or two,
134
00:11:07,541 --> 00:11:09,125
before she got accepted at TATA.
135
00:11:11,916 --> 00:11:16,041
{\an8}When I was 13 years old
TATA Archery Academy were holding trials,
136
00:11:16,125 --> 00:11:18,708
{\an8}and I was determined to get selected.
137
00:11:20,083 --> 00:11:24,375
My coach Dharmendra Tiwari,
he was in charge of selections.
138
00:11:26,916 --> 00:11:29,958
{\an8}She came to me and said,
"I want to train with you."
139
00:11:30,500 --> 00:11:33,583
I said, "Fine, but you'll have to
follow my instructions."
140
00:11:36,583 --> 00:11:39,541
She informed me that she had been
selected by TATA.
141
00:11:39,875 --> 00:11:43,625
So, the bow she needed
was very expensive.
142
00:11:44,541 --> 00:11:46,041
I told her:
143
00:11:46,625 --> 00:11:49,083
"I'm a poor man,
where will I get the money?"
144
00:11:49,666 --> 00:11:52,875
But somehow,
I scraped together whatever I could.
145
00:11:54,250 --> 00:11:57,875
She was a naive village girl
who lacked confidence.
146
00:11:59,041 --> 00:12:02,166
{\an8}She didn't know how to eat, sleep,
147
00:12:02,250 --> 00:12:04,208
{\an8}or dress properly.
148
00:12:04,291 --> 00:12:07,291
{\an8}We taught her how to eat with a spoon,
149
00:12:07,375 --> 00:12:11,291
{\an8}and how to carry herself.
150
00:12:12,500 --> 00:12:14,916
{\an8}She used to keep to herself
and practice alone.
151
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,041
{\an8}She worked extremely hard
to correct her flaws.
152
00:12:20,166 --> 00:12:22,708
She shoots as many arrows as we ask her to
153
00:12:22,791 --> 00:12:26,166
and she's a fast learner.
154
00:12:28,166 --> 00:12:30,625
Her talent is nothing short of a miracle.
155
00:12:31,250 --> 00:12:35,583
Within just one year of starting Archery,
she became the Cadet World Champion.
156
00:12:45,583 --> 00:12:47,791
When I started archery, I had no idea
157
00:12:47,875 --> 00:12:50,666
that it was a sport.
158
00:12:51,333 --> 00:12:53,625
Slowly I started gaining interest in it.
159
00:12:53,708 --> 00:12:55,791
Then, I was hooked.
160
00:12:56,583 --> 00:13:01,166
I always wanted to do something
that got me noticed.
161
00:13:01,500 --> 00:13:04,500
So people recognize me and say,
"That's Deepika."
162
00:13:38,041 --> 00:13:40,250
{\an8}Ms. Deepika Kumari.
163
00:13:41,166 --> 00:13:43,791
{\an8}To get one of India's highest
honors at such a young age,
164
00:13:43,875 --> 00:13:45,666
{\an8}I was so proud and had tears of joy.
165
00:13:46,666 --> 00:13:50,916
{\an8}From the moment Deepika flourished,
we've never had a shortage of money.
166
00:13:51,833 --> 00:13:54,791
The house you see here...
167
00:13:54,875 --> 00:13:57,791
I haven't spent a single penny on it.
168
00:13:58,166 --> 00:14:01,041
I've built it with the money
169
00:14:01,125 --> 00:14:02,416
my daughter gave me.
170
00:14:19,875 --> 00:14:22,250
Why are you Deepika's biggest fan?
171
00:14:22,333 --> 00:14:26,041
Because she's done our country proud,
and I want to be just like her.
172
00:14:37,416 --> 00:14:40,333
She became World Number 1
in just three to four years
173
00:14:40,916 --> 00:14:43,041
which is unheard of in archery.
174
00:14:54,250 --> 00:14:57,500
The 2012 Olympics was the first time
I went to London.
175
00:14:58,625 --> 00:15:00,958
I had high expectations because
176
00:15:01,041 --> 00:15:05,458
I was World Number 1 at the time
and I was performing well.
177
00:15:05,541 --> 00:15:08,166
{\an8}So, I expected to bring home a medal.
178
00:15:25,166 --> 00:15:27,791
The ground was pulled from under my feet.
179
00:15:28,708 --> 00:15:30,666
I felt it was over too soon.
180
00:15:31,291 --> 00:15:33,583
I didn't get a chance to soak it all in.
181
00:15:34,458 --> 00:15:37,333
{\an8}The women's number one world archer,
Deepika Kumari,
182
00:15:37,416 --> 00:15:38,875
{\an8}has crashed out of the London Olympics.
183
00:15:47,250 --> 00:15:52,666
{\an8}If I wanted to act pricey,
I wouldn't have given any interviews.
184
00:15:52,750 --> 00:15:57,166
{\an8}I am tired. My head is hurting.
185
00:15:57,250 --> 00:15:59,625
She felt demoralized after London
186
00:16:00,416 --> 00:16:01,916
and became very negative.
187
00:16:02,833 --> 00:16:04,666
She lost her place in the team,
188
00:16:05,166 --> 00:16:07,791
and was very upset about that.
189
00:16:10,333 --> 00:16:12,375
I used to cry all day in my room.
190
00:16:12,458 --> 00:16:14,208
I went into depression.
191
00:16:14,958 --> 00:16:18,833
I wouldn't eat, drink or anything.
192
00:16:19,791 --> 00:16:22,125
I started performing badly.
193
00:16:22,375 --> 00:16:25,125
My performance graph kept fluctuating.
194
00:16:27,583 --> 00:16:30,208
I started losing hope.
195
00:16:30,291 --> 00:16:34,458
I thought of quitting.
196
00:16:36,250 --> 00:16:38,958
That was the time my neighbors
started to gossip.
197
00:16:39,041 --> 00:16:43,375
"Where is she getting all this money
from?" "What is she really doing?"
198
00:16:43,458 --> 00:16:45,458
That's how narrow-minded they are.
199
00:16:46,708 --> 00:16:48,333
They still taunt my parents.
200
00:16:48,416 --> 00:16:52,041
"You shouldn't have
allowed your daughter to get into sports.
201
00:16:52,125 --> 00:16:54,166
You should have kept her at home."
202
00:16:56,750 --> 00:17:01,750
I lost a lot of self-confidence.
203
00:17:05,125 --> 00:17:08,625
In Europe, there's less gender inequality.
204
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,166
In India, the roles are clearly divided,
205
00:17:12,250 --> 00:17:14,958
this is a man's job, that's a woman's job.
206
00:17:15,041 --> 00:17:16,958
Therefore, women lack confidence.
207
00:17:18,041 --> 00:17:22,125
You can see how confident women
in the West are from their attitude.
208
00:17:22,208 --> 00:17:26,041
If we give our girls a chance
to come forward and express
209
00:17:26,125 --> 00:17:30,125
themselves their confidence will rise.
210
00:17:39,083 --> 00:17:42,541
In our country, even those
who are well-educated believe
211
00:17:42,625 --> 00:17:43,750
the girls
212
00:17:44,416 --> 00:17:46,875
cannot play sports.
213
00:17:48,625 --> 00:17:50,625
In my opinion, they are crazy
214
00:17:50,708 --> 00:17:54,916
because their thinking
is extremely regressive.
215
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:56,083
In my opinion,
216
00:17:56,375 --> 00:17:59,166
people often throw around the term,
"ladies first."
217
00:17:59,250 --> 00:18:03,250
So, when girls want to advance in life,
be it in education or sports,
218
00:18:03,333 --> 00:18:06,750
why not say "ladies first,"
when it really counts?
219
00:18:09,333 --> 00:18:11,583
Do they actually believe girls are weak
220
00:18:11,666 --> 00:18:13,416
or incompetent?
221
00:18:14,208 --> 00:18:16,791
I believe they are afraid of us
222
00:18:17,083 --> 00:18:22,958
that if we are given freedom
we will surpass them and go so far ahead
223
00:18:23,041 --> 00:18:25,166
they won't be able to see us at all.
224
00:18:28,041 --> 00:18:30,458
There is so much pressure on her
225
00:18:30,541 --> 00:18:34,250
to win a gold medal.
226
00:18:34,333 --> 00:18:37,791
If it was me,
I would crumble under the pressure.
227
00:18:37,875 --> 00:18:39,916
I don't know how she handles it.
228
00:18:41,791 --> 00:18:45,333
When she's here at TATA,
she's sharp and focused.
229
00:18:45,416 --> 00:18:48,375
But when she competes abroad,
230
00:18:48,458 --> 00:18:52,125
I don't know what affects her.
She loses her nerve and confidence.
231
00:19:02,750 --> 00:19:05,166
Archery is a mental game,
232
00:19:05,250 --> 00:19:08,750
so it's important to have a mental coach.
233
00:19:09,708 --> 00:19:12,875
That should improve my performance.
234
00:19:13,625 --> 00:19:16,875
Deepika needs
a mental coach desperately...
235
00:19:17,750 --> 00:19:20,666
...and from day one, not a month
or two before the Olympics.
236
00:19:20,750 --> 00:19:22,833
If we want to win an Olympic medal,
237
00:19:22,916 --> 00:19:25,000
we need to prepare well in advance.
238
00:19:27,583 --> 00:19:32,333
Korean archers are mentally strong. It's
not that they're better skilled than us,
239
00:19:32,416 --> 00:19:35,000
just that they are mentally stronger.
240
00:19:37,958 --> 00:19:41,208
London 2012 to Rio 2016,
241
00:19:41,291 --> 00:19:44,291
four years seems like a long time,
242
00:19:44,375 --> 00:19:45,708
for any normal person.
243
00:19:46,291 --> 00:19:49,625
But my coach said,
"Rio 2016 is just around the corner
244
00:19:49,708 --> 00:19:53,125
so start preparing
and working hard now
245
00:19:53,208 --> 00:19:55,083
as time flies."
246
00:19:56,375 --> 00:19:59,833
So, I told myself, what's done is done,
247
00:19:59,916 --> 00:20:01,958
you can't change the past.
248
00:20:03,750 --> 00:20:06,583
I'm strong enough
249
00:20:07,125 --> 00:20:09,083
and I believe in myself to know
250
00:20:09,166 --> 00:20:11,583
that I'll never return to my old life.
251
00:20:12,708 --> 00:20:15,875
I'll keep working hard,
giving up is not an option.
252
00:20:16,458 --> 00:20:18,250
This time I'm going to fight!
253
00:20:23,666 --> 00:20:25,750
{\an8}We had seven Olympic trials.
254
00:20:26,916 --> 00:20:30,000
Deepika broke the world record
in the first three trials.
255
00:20:30,083 --> 00:20:33,458
{\an8}At the World Cup in Shanghai,
she equaled the existing world record.
256
00:20:34,083 --> 00:20:36,333
{\an8}We're 99 percent sure
she'll win an Olympic medal.
257
00:20:40,250 --> 00:20:43,125
{\an8}She should have been selected
right then and there.
258
00:20:44,375 --> 00:20:46,958
Actually I don't want to talk about it,
thank you.
259
00:20:48,125 --> 00:20:50,125
I don't make many friends...
260
00:20:51,083 --> 00:20:55,208
as I want to focus only on one thing,
an Olympic gold medal.
261
00:20:56,291 --> 00:20:59,375
I never talk about how hard I work.
262
00:20:59,916 --> 00:21:03,125
I just want to give my 100 percent
and win that medal!
263
00:21:05,208 --> 00:21:08,750
The Korean team was selected
three months before the Olympics.
264
00:21:08,833 --> 00:21:10,958
We need a selection committee in place
265
00:21:11,166 --> 00:21:13,000
for selection and
266
00:21:13,500 --> 00:21:15,250
to create a schedule.
267
00:21:15,875 --> 00:21:18,458
Otherwise with trials every 15 days
268
00:21:18,541 --> 00:21:19,833
and also a World Cup,
269
00:21:20,041 --> 00:21:21,791
there is no time for recovery.
270
00:21:22,208 --> 00:21:25,500
Therefore, an injury is inevitable.
This lack of planning by our authorities
271
00:21:25,583 --> 00:21:27,625
caused Deepika to suffer
a shoulder injury.
272
00:21:29,916 --> 00:21:32,541
I have an appointment with the doctor.
273
00:21:32,625 --> 00:21:36,791
Maybe we will go to Delhi
or after coming back to Mumbai.
274
00:21:38,041 --> 00:21:41,333
The appointment is confirmed.
275
00:21:55,208 --> 00:21:58,916
It's a nightmare to get injured
a few days before the Olympics.
276
00:22:03,875 --> 00:22:06,250
Tell me, what's the matter?
277
00:22:06,583 --> 00:22:08,958
When I draw my bow,
278
00:22:09,041 --> 00:22:10,500
it hurts here.
279
00:22:11,125 --> 00:22:13,541
So, I'm not able to pull back.
280
00:22:13,833 --> 00:22:16,750
When I get to this position,
it's very painful--
281
00:22:16,833 --> 00:22:18,708
Whenever she reaches the end
282
00:22:18,791 --> 00:22:23,041
{\an8}and flicks it and tries to release
that time no pain.
283
00:22:23,541 --> 00:22:24,833
It hurts at this point.
284
00:22:25,291 --> 00:22:27,416
Let me explain.
I'm the one feeling the pain.
285
00:22:28,833 --> 00:22:31,666
It looks like, most probably,
286
00:22:32,291 --> 00:22:34,250
bicipital tendinitis.
287
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,000
- I'm not feeling well.
- What?
288
00:23:00,541 --> 00:23:03,750
- I don't feel so good.
- You have food, then you can sleep.
289
00:23:06,750 --> 00:23:09,583
- You lie down.
- Come.
290
00:23:10,375 --> 00:23:11,791
Lie down.
She'll lie down for some time.
291
00:23:12,833 --> 00:23:15,958
- You need water?
- I think I'm going to throw up.
292
00:23:18,916 --> 00:23:20,583
I have pain in my right shoulder.
293
00:23:20,666 --> 00:23:22,708
I need to fix it at any cost.
294
00:23:22,791 --> 00:23:27,500
I can't let the authorities' apathy
hamper my chances.
295
00:23:27,583 --> 00:23:29,958
But anyway, I'm very excited
296
00:23:30,041 --> 00:23:34,041
to leave for the Olympics
297
00:23:34,125 --> 00:23:37,458
and represent India.
298
00:23:38,666 --> 00:23:42,250
Maybe I'm the girl who will bring home
a medal for India.
299
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,583
I'm sure my Mum will be praying to God
during my matches in Rio.
300
00:25:08,666 --> 00:25:11,333
"Help my daughter win!"
301
00:25:11,666 --> 00:25:14,041
My Dad is going on a pilgrimage to Shirdi.
302
00:25:23,291 --> 00:25:27,291
I've been to every place of worship
so that my daughter returns victorious
303
00:25:27,375 --> 00:25:29,375
and does Jharkhand proud.
304
00:25:29,458 --> 00:25:33,250
I request the media to also pray for her
305
00:25:33,333 --> 00:25:35,750
to come home a winner.
306
00:25:36,500 --> 00:25:39,708
I don't know why I'm crying.
307
00:25:39,791 --> 00:25:42,333
Maybe these are tears of joy
308
00:25:42,416 --> 00:25:44,583
in anticipation of good news.
309
00:26:30,041 --> 00:26:31,958
I just hope I don't feel any pain.
310
00:26:33,750 --> 00:26:35,250
Hope this won't lead to pain.
311
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:39,000
It hurts.
312
00:26:39,875 --> 00:26:41,208
A lot?
313
00:26:45,958 --> 00:26:47,541
It hurts when I release...
314
00:26:48,791 --> 00:26:50,541
after holding it in this position.
315
00:26:53,541 --> 00:26:57,416
Deepika was at her peak
during the first three trials
316
00:26:57,500 --> 00:26:59,500
where she broke the world record.
317
00:27:00,083 --> 00:27:02,583
Then she got injured
and lost sensation in her shoulder.
318
00:27:02,666 --> 00:27:05,833
Without pain she shoots fine,
with pain she gets nervous.
319
00:27:09,666 --> 00:27:12,375
Her mental focus wavers
when she doesn't shoot well.
320
00:27:12,458 --> 00:27:14,958
She forgets to use her elbow.
321
00:27:15,958 --> 00:27:19,041
She's not able to do it the first time.
322
00:27:19,125 --> 00:27:21,333
Only sometimes she is able to.
323
00:27:22,375 --> 00:27:24,375
She shouldn't merely
324
00:27:24,458 --> 00:27:25,541
rely on her wrist.
325
00:27:25,625 --> 00:27:28,416
She should exert power
from her shoulder and elbow.
326
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,125
You have to control your wrist.
327
00:27:34,541 --> 00:27:38,125
You have to close the gap
between your forearm and shoulder.
328
00:27:38,208 --> 00:27:39,500
Keep your wrist in...
329
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:42,833
and use your elbow as an anchor.
330
00:27:42,916 --> 00:27:46,208
That will improve your shooting
and you'll consistently hit the X.
331
00:27:46,291 --> 00:27:49,333
When the gap increases,
it means you're using your wrist.
332
00:27:55,416 --> 00:27:56,500
Someone's calling.
333
00:27:59,916 --> 00:28:00,791
Please come in.
334
00:28:01,750 --> 00:28:04,916
I've been wondering
335
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,416
when you would call
336
00:28:07,500 --> 00:28:09,625
as I've been waiting to speak to you.
337
00:28:12,083 --> 00:28:14,000
Be confident.
338
00:28:14,750 --> 00:28:15,833
Okay?
339
00:28:15,916 --> 00:28:18,833
Feel the confidence within, okay?
340
00:28:19,416 --> 00:28:20,333
Okay.
341
00:28:20,416 --> 00:28:23,250
I wish you luck.
342
00:28:23,333 --> 00:28:24,958
May God bless you.
343
00:28:35,291 --> 00:28:37,208
I pray
344
00:28:37,291 --> 00:28:39,666
I don't feel any pain during my matches
345
00:28:39,750 --> 00:28:42,458
so I can concentrate fully on my game
346
00:28:42,541 --> 00:28:44,291
and perform well.
347
00:31:46,875 --> 00:31:48,708
How did you feel after Rio?
348
00:31:51,375 --> 00:31:52,583
After Rio?
349
00:31:55,375 --> 00:31:58,916
Just that after working so hard
350
00:31:59,291 --> 00:32:00,916
and then losing,
351
00:32:01,416 --> 00:32:04,083
and the burden of loss
is a heavy cross to bear.
352
00:32:25,833 --> 00:32:27,625
Please don't ask me that question.
353
00:32:48,833 --> 00:32:50,750
You feel bad when...
354
00:32:53,875 --> 00:32:56,166
wherever you go...
355
00:32:57,166 --> 00:32:58,375
you don't
356
00:32:59,750 --> 00:33:03,708
get any respect just because--
357
00:33:06,458 --> 00:33:08,291
You don't have an Olympic gold medal
358
00:33:08,375 --> 00:33:10,791
or any Olympic medal.
359
00:33:12,041 --> 00:33:15,625
It doesn't matter how many
other competitions you've won.
360
00:33:15,708 --> 00:33:17,708
It really doesn't matter.
361
00:33:19,375 --> 00:33:22,750
These things need to
362
00:33:23,458 --> 00:33:25,000
change in our country.
363
00:33:34,416 --> 00:33:35,250
Perhaps
364
00:33:36,041 --> 00:33:37,125
it will take...
365
00:33:39,958 --> 00:33:41,000
a lot of time.
366
00:33:41,875 --> 00:33:45,416
Eight years, twelve years?
367
00:34:28,333 --> 00:34:30,541
- Hi, big sister.
- Hi. What's all this?
368
00:34:30,791 --> 00:34:32,458
Flowers?
369
00:34:36,708 --> 00:34:38,083
- Anointment.
- Very little only.
370
00:34:42,250 --> 00:34:44,208
- Welcome, big sister.
- How are you all?
371
00:34:44,291 --> 00:34:45,541
We're good.
372
00:34:45,625 --> 00:34:48,250
- How's practice coming along?
- Very well.
373
00:34:48,333 --> 00:34:49,708
- What?
- Look at this.
374
00:34:51,500 --> 00:34:55,250
- I've made a scrap book about you.
- There's no better teacher than time.
375
00:34:55,333 --> 00:34:56,666
Neither as strong
376
00:34:56,750 --> 00:35:00,291
nor as kind.
Oh, so, these are just the good ones.
377
00:35:00,375 --> 00:35:02,791
We watched the Olympics together
in the TV room.
378
00:35:02,875 --> 00:35:04,875
We'd set our alarms for midnight
379
00:35:04,958 --> 00:35:07,666
and would wake each other up
380
00:35:07,750 --> 00:35:10,500
by saying, "It's Deepika's match."
381
00:35:10,583 --> 00:35:12,208
We'd jump out of bed--
382
00:35:12,291 --> 00:35:14,166
And pray for your victory.
383
00:35:14,250 --> 00:35:17,083
If your score was low,
we would pray:
384
00:35:17,166 --> 00:35:21,500
"God, please help our sister Deepika,"
and scream loudly that you win.
385
00:35:21,916 --> 00:35:24,666
You should have screamed louder
so I could have heard you in Rio.
386
00:35:24,750 --> 00:35:26,875
We'd pray
387
00:35:26,958 --> 00:35:28,708
that every arrow is a 10 but...
388
00:35:30,166 --> 00:35:32,208
Unless we put in the hard work,
389
00:35:32,291 --> 00:35:37,083
we won't achieve anything. We just have to
work hard and one day we will get there.
390
00:35:37,625 --> 00:35:39,750
In our country,
391
00:35:39,833 --> 00:35:43,291
girls keep saying they'll work hard.
392
00:35:43,375 --> 00:35:45,583
We all work hard,
393
00:35:46,208 --> 00:35:48,208
but
394
00:35:48,291 --> 00:35:51,166
nobody teaches you the right way.
395
00:35:51,708 --> 00:35:52,583
They say:
396
00:35:53,291 --> 00:35:57,083
"Fine, we'll give our
100 or 200 percent."
397
00:35:57,458 --> 00:36:02,166
But how do you know what you're doing
is right? How will you ever know?
398
00:36:04,250 --> 00:36:07,291
Watch your seniors shoot,
ask your coaches,
399
00:36:07,375 --> 00:36:08,708
watch their match videos.
400
00:36:09,291 --> 00:36:12,750
It's the Internet Age, download videos.
401
00:36:12,833 --> 00:36:16,166
There are such good players
from Korea, USA, Mexico,
402
00:36:16,250 --> 00:36:17,833
watch their videos.
403
00:36:17,916 --> 00:36:19,708
This is what hard work entails.
404
00:36:19,791 --> 00:36:21,958
Hard work...
405
00:36:22,041 --> 00:36:23,916
is doing the right thing.
406
00:36:24,875 --> 00:36:25,875
Yeah.
407
00:36:27,583 --> 00:36:29,416
- Train well.
- We need to take a photo.
408
00:36:29,500 --> 00:36:31,291
You are the seniors now.
409
00:36:32,416 --> 00:36:35,416
In our country, girls have big dreams
410
00:36:35,500 --> 00:36:38,416
and ambitions, and want to fulfill them
411
00:36:38,500 --> 00:36:40,500
but are held back by fear.
412
00:36:40,583 --> 00:36:43,416
I want my story
413
00:36:43,916 --> 00:36:45,416
to inspire every girl.
414
00:36:46,041 --> 00:36:49,000
If you want to be successful,
415
00:36:49,791 --> 00:36:52,250
you have to fight!
416
00:36:52,333 --> 00:36:54,875
Say cheese!
417
00:36:59,333 --> 00:37:02,375
Sports has taught me
an important lesson:
418
00:37:03,333 --> 00:37:04,750
Never give up,
419
00:37:05,500 --> 00:37:08,791
because the minute you give up,
420
00:37:08,875 --> 00:37:13,750
you lose.
But as long as you keep fighting,
421
00:37:14,666 --> 00:37:18,375
you gain a sense of confidence
422
00:37:18,458 --> 00:37:20,000
that you can be a winner!
