Neeraj Chopra was interviewed by Navika Kumar, Times Now Navbharat Editor-in-Chief, about his recent return from Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
Chopra just returned with a gold medal in Javelin Throw and is now being considered the nation’s pride, along with all other Indian Olympic medalists.
The interview was a conversation between the 23-year old and Navika Kumar about his sport, his parents, and many other topics. One thing that caught everyone’s attention was Neeraj’s question to Navika Kumar about his relationship status.
He was also asked about his female fans and if he enjoys all the ‘female attention’. This did not go down well with many people, who felt the sportsperson wasn’t being treated with respect and asked unnecessary questions.

People began to trolling Navika Kumar quickly, comparing her with Sima Aunty in Indian Matchmaking.
Many people were even upset that a well-known athlete was being asked these kinds of questions, and not more important questions.

Neeraj Chopra won a gold medal at Olympics only for Navika to ask him about this. What a joke of a channel, sends their ‘Group editor, Politics’ to take interview of an athlete. And jeez, look at the ‘BIG REVELATION’. How important.
Pathetic from Navika. But where’s the surprise. https://t.co/4oNLPGclup— Gurkirat Singh Gill (@gurkiratsgill) August 10, 2021

Why is it necessary to bring up someone’s personal life when you can talk about their dreams aspirations and struggles ? Moreover labelling this as some sort of spicey revelation as if he’s an object of entertainment or pleasure for y’all. I don’t understand journalism sometimes. https://t.co/p7QSf2xUII
