Neeraj Chopra, India’s Olympic gold medallist and the country’s biggest javelin star, grew up in a small farming family in Khandra village, near Panipat in Haryana. Today, that same village is home to a bungalow worth close to Rs 30 crore, built by the same man whose father once worked just two acres of land. This house serves as a reminder of how far Neeraj Chopra has come, from a village boy training at Panipat’s Shivaji Stadium to a global sporting icon.
