NEW DELHI: Amit Panghal had never put much faith in the concept of fate until he faced a disappointing defeat at the Tokyo Olympics and the ensuing hardships. As he navigated through this difficult period, Panghal came to the realisation that in order to secure a medal at the Paris Games, he would require not only his remarkable abilities but also a touch of "kismet" or luck.
"After the Tokyo Olympics I have started believing in kismet," Panghal told PTI on Wednesday.
