SRK, Amitabh Bachchan Congratulate PV Sindhu on Her Historic Win

PV Sindhu is the first Indian to win a gold medal at the BWF World Championships.

The 24-year-old also became the first Indian to win a gold medal at the BWF World Championships.

From Shah Rukh Khan to Amitabh Bachchan, Taapsee Pannu and Ajay Devgn, wishes poured in for her from Bollywood. Hailing Sindhu’s historic feat, Shah Rukh Khan tweeted, “Congratulations PV Sindhu for winning the Gold at the BWF World Championships... Making us proud as a nation with your exceptional talent. Keep creating history!”
