Pawan Sehrawat’s childhood dream, favourite dish and much more…
While fans might know all the stats and the achievements of the high-flyer, recently in a rapid fire interview, he spoke about his childhood dream, favourite dish, his love for pets and much more probably for the first-ever time.
In a reel posted by Olympickhel, the official Instagram page of the IOA (Indian Olympic Association) he was asked about his favourite dish and unassumingly he was quick to reply “Aloo Paratha”. Even after giving the option to choose between Aloo Paratha and Pani Puri, Chola Bhature and Momos, the 27-year old picked Aloo Paratha everytime exhibiting his love for the dish.
What came as the biggest surprise was his childhood dream. Kabaddi is not his first love as he revealed that he dreamt of being a Badminton player in his childhood. “I wanted to be a Badminton player, but Kabaddi is fine,” he chuckled. Had he not picked up Kabaddi, who knows, he might have been a ‘High-Flyer’ in the Badminton world.
And if you ever feel that your family isn’t letting you own a pet dog. Don’t worry. Because Pawan Sehrawat too faces the same problem. “I wanted to own a dog, but my family isn’t supporting,” he says. Also when asked who according to him is his biggest sport star, he was quick to say, “Neeraj Chopra.”
