Another commented, “Absolutely agree! As a BPES student, I’m learning to balance both sports and academics, and it’s been an amazing journey. Finding that balance is key to success. Thanks for the inspiration! #Sports #Academics #BPES..” Another user wrote, “Thank you for doing this
@realmanubhaker
. You will truly set a benchmark for lots of youngsters. And finally, we will have a competition for "Sharmaji ka beta" in the form of "Bhakerji ki beti". More power to you…”
