NEW DELHI: Table tennis star Sharath Kamal has donated the prize money he got after winning his 10th national title to the bereaved family of Vishwa Deendayalan, the 18-year-old paddler who died in a road accident on his way to Shillong from Guwahati last month.
Vishwa's sudden death felt like a personal loss to the Indian great Sharath, who would often practice with the teenager in Chennai. Vishwa, too, was heading to the nationals in Shillong when he met with a fatal car accident.
