Playing badminton is a tough job. Smashing the shuttle onto your opponent, handling pressure in those intense moments and running around the court for a long time is no piece of cake. So when the star badminton players are not doing all that, they show their fun side by walking on the ramp.
International badminton stars walked the ramp in their desi avatars at the opening ceremony of the 2017 Premier Badminton League (PBL), organised on January 1 in Hyderabad. Olympic gold and silver medallists Carolina Marin and PV Sindhu respectively along with coach Pullela Gopichand and others aced their off-court performance as well.
