Indian badminton star Lakshya Sen has captivated the sporting world with his outstanding performance at the 2024 Paris Olympics. In a gripping match against Indonesia’s world number 4 Jonatan Christie, Lakshya secured an impressive 21-18, 21-12 victory and executed an extraordinary shot that went viral on social media.
Mahindra Group chairman Anand Mahindra, known for his sharp wit, took a playful jab at Lakshya Sen’s daring behind-the-back shot.
The shot in question was a jaw-dropping “behind-the-back” stroke that left spectators and opponents stunned. Industrialist Anand Mahindra, impressed by this display of skill, humorously suggested that Christie’s only option might be to “cry foul and file a suit” against Lakshya. Mahindra remarked that the young shuttler seemed like an “unnatural opponent who possessed three arms.”
