Get to know, what does she has to say about her journey.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    More than 100 medals, so many trophies, how do you feel?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I feel absolutely proud of myself being a girl. As I have proved that not only boys but girls are equally capable of achieving and reaching to great heights.<\/p>\n

    \"Medals
    Medals and Trophies<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
      \n
    1. \n

      You presented <\/strong>West Bengal<\/span> at national level\/inter state level. What was your aim?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      My aim was to win gold medals in as many events as possible and prove my hard work and enthusiasm to everyone. Also, I always wished to make my coach and my parents feel proud at me.\u00a0The state level championship helped me to notify the level of competition & participate in future big events.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. \n

        You earned a sports scholarship which is not easy, how did you do that?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Winning medals in Calcutta University Meet<\/strong><\/span> and making my college proud helped me grab sports scholarship.\u00a0It would not have been possible without my parents support and encouragement throughout my journey so far.<\/p>\n

        1. \n

          You come from a family where girls are not allowed to participate in sports tournaments, how did your parents agree?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          There’s nothing about the family. Being a Muslim doesn’t mean we can’t excel or we don’t have the opportunity to be famous. My parents stood beside me and supported me throughout to build myself. Being a girl I feel really proud in today’s generation.<\/p>\n

          \"Swimming\"<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. \n

            How your parents reacted for your achievements?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            They feel very happy, proud, honored & show satisfaction towards my achievements. They are very proud parents to see me at this stage in life. And I always respect their support.<\/p>\n

              \n
            1. \n

              Have you thought of\u00a0participating in Asian Games and representing India in International level?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              Representing India now would really make me focus more on sports than academics. I want to work for myself and representing country is a part of it, but I haven\u2019t thought about it, lately.<\/p>\n

              \"Shehreen<\/p>\n

                \n
              1. \n

                Where do you want to focus in future, studies or sports?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                I don\u2019t want to give up on studies because I want to work for my passion and that is my dad’s dream. So my aim is to achieve mine and his dream together.<\/p>\n
