Pusarla Venkata Sidhu ^Businessman

Pusarla Venkata Sindhu is an Indian professional badminton player, who is currently world no 3 in the BWF World Ranking. The 22-year-old from Hyderabad became a national hero when she won India's first medal of the Rio Olympics, a silver in women's singles. That achievement not only earned her millions in prize money and endorsements back home (second only to famed cricketer Virat Kohli), but also fueled interest in her as a badminton icon. Sindhu has since won titles at the Korea Open and India Open, defeating her Rio gold medal victor, Spain's Carolina Marin, at the latter.
