Before Paris, before the medal ceremony, before the cameras found him, Navdeep Singh Sheoran was practising throws far from the spotlight, repeating movements until they felt right.

Born on 11 November 2000 and raised in Panipat, Haryana, Navdeep grew up with dwarfism and limited access to specialised training facilities. Sport was never presented to him as an obvious path. It became one through persistence, routine, and belief built over time.

Standing 4 feet 4 inches tall, he learned to navigate both physical limitations and assumptions about ability. What carried him forward was discipline, patience, and a clear sense of purpose.
