Mera bharat mahaan 👍👍👍👍👍👍🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 I love my india

[surajvarne]

I don’t understand why the reporter made it so political out of nowhere. Badminton ki baat ho rahi hai tho why are you talking about the issues in pakistan? The player was unaware that you were asking just diplomatic questions. We always want to prove that India is better than Pakistan. I don’t know but this only boosts our ego.

She is an asset for Pak team. The country has to change overall that's the point she makes, which is really true. Especially girls has to be appraised and appreciated

This Pakistani girl may have lost to Sindhu but she is a damn good player! I watched her play in the CWG. I wouldn't be surprised that with a little determination, changes and practice she would improve further and win a medal for Pakistan! Good luck Mahoor! Love from India!!

[hilifetravel]

Very mature and balanced reply. So proud of you.

[anjanapatel]

👍 bright girl. Her choice to say Insanallah. As long as she is not offending any one else, more power to her.

[udkr]

Few years back even we Indians used to complain on the infra for sports within the country. But due to few sports persons we are improving. I think its because of such few people who work really hard and get nation recognition and then start building up their sport in the nation. Its we the people who make the nation.

[airavatvats]

Good mature balanced response from the Pakistani player

[Shivam-]

Don't worry you have done your best, our wishes from 🇮🇳

[Anonymous-bkhp]

Feel pity for her, her words clearly says expresses her helplessness and shows that she despeŕately wants to improve herself but owing to her country's mindset and lack of resources, she lagged behind..
Had she been an Indian, she would had got all the support and resources to play the way she wants..

[umeshsharma]

You are very talented. Being indian we respect your game😊

[SBT]

Very smart lady & well spoken. God bless her!

[p.aryaveergupta]

Articulate and concise. Well put Mahoor. Love from an Indian bro ❤️

[Sorikent]

Dream of every pakistani is to be Indians 😅

[lusaka]

Dont make fun of Players. Respect them!
If you wanna oppose Pakistan oppose goverment.

[hybridinfo]

She has a very clear thought process... God bless her 🇮🇳🇮🇳
