New Delhi: Times Internet has launched Game On, India’s boldest sports storytelling platform, with Olympic bronze medallist Sakshi Malik delivering raw, unfiltered insights that redefine what it means to be a champion.
In the premiere episode, Sakshi reveals the crushing weight she carried during her historic Rio 2016 win: “I saved Indian wrestling.” But that’s just the beginning of a conversation that challenges every assumption about female athletes in India.
Sakshi opens up about her journey through marriage, motherhood, and maintaining her champion identity. “People don’t see the woman behind the wrestler,” Malik reveals, sharing the impossible balancing act that female athletes face in India.
Game On breaks every rule of sports storytelling. No highlight reels. No corporate messaging. Just raw, honest conversations that reveal the person behind the performer.
“That bronze medal wasn’t just mine – it belonged to every wrestler who came before me and every young girl who would pick up the sport after,” Sakshi shares, showing how true champions carry the dreams of entire communities.
