Gopichand's Discipline: No Biryani, Phones for Champions

Pullela Gopichand is a famous badminton coach who has trained many top players like Saina Nehwal and PV Sindhu.

He believes that to become a world champion, players must make sacrifices and follow strict rules.

For example, he doesn't allow his players to eat biryani often or use their phones during training.

Before the 2016 Olympics, PV Sindhu wasn't allowed to use her phone for three months or eat ice cream.

Gopichand thinks that these rules help players stay focused on their goal of becoming the best.

He says that giving up small things like biryani or phone use is a way to remind players of their bigger dream.

It's not about the food or the phone, but about the discipline and sacrifice needed to achieve greatness.
