These posts with a dash of love and humor show the etiquette of mutual respect between these athletes. Also, it is evident that Abhinav has gifted a cute golden retriever puppy dog to Neeraj named Tokyo and has motivated him to get a sibling for Tokyo named Paris in 2024 where the next set of Olympic games is to be held. This gesture by Abhinav has both been a sign of inspiration and motivation for Neeraj to bring home yet another gold from Paris real soon.

 

Hoping to see the pictures of Neeraj’s win in Paris along with his pet Paris real soon!
