Live Mint  

With defending champion India's Neeraj Chopra lost his gold medal in javelin throw to Pakistan's Arshad Nadeem at the Paris Olympics on Thursday night, the eyes of fans from both nations were glued to the television sets. Though India and Pakistan share differing ideologies and often are at loggerheads politically, Neeraj and Arshad have managed to transcend boundaries and strike up a grand friendship. Neeraj's take on Arshad's throw: Soon after Arshad's 91.79m throw in the final attempt of the javelin throw, followed by his Olympic record of 92.97m throw, Neeraj congratulated his Pakistani counterpart. Neeraj-Nadeem friendship: The India-Pakistan duo's friendship began six years ago, when a heartwarming picture of the two had gone viral on social media after Neeraj and Nadeem finished 1-3 on the podium.
