Their performance at the <keyword id="4488729" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Paris-2024-Olympics" source="Orion">Paris 2024 Olympics</keyword> was a masterclass in athletic prowess. The clash ended on a slightly disappointing note for the man in blue, as Chopra took home the silver medal while Nadeem clinched Pakistan’s first-ever individual gold medal. Yet, behind this fierce competition lies a remarkable story of camaraderie and mutual respect. Here are five standout moments that highlight their bond. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Post-Olympics praise and respect" comment="subhead" text="Post-Olympics praise and respect">Post-Olympics praise and respect</cmsannotation> After the Paris 2024 Olympics wrapped up with Nadeem's gold and Chopra's silver, the respect between the two was palpable. Despite the sting of defeat, Chopra embraced Nadeem, graciously acknowledging it was "Arshad's day" and commending his performance. Nadeem reciprocated with admiration, celebrating his victory while lauding Chopra’s status in the sport, underscoring that their rivalry is more about mutual admiration than any bitterness. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Saroj Devi's heartfelt gesture" comment="subhead" text="Saroj Devi's heartfelt gesture"><keyword id="21107657" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="saroj-devi" source="keywords">Saroj Devi</keyword>'s heartfelt gesture</cmsannotation> In the wake of Neeraj’s silver medal, his mother, Saroj Devi, brought a touching perspective to the rivalry when she referred to Nadeem as her son. She said: “We are happy with the silver. The one who got the gold (Arshad) is also my child,” highlighting the warmth and familial bond that transcends national borders and athletic competition. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Chopra's support for Nadeem's equipment woes" comment="subhead" text="Chopra's support for Nadeem's equipment woes">Chopra's support for Nadeem's equipment woes</cmsannotation> In a show of sportsmanship, just months before the Paris Olympics, Chopra publicly advocated for Nadeem's need for a new javelin when the Pakistani athlete faced challenges acquiring one. Chopra had remarked: “It is hard to believe that he has been struggling to get a new javelin. Given his credentials, this should not be a big issue at all. Arshad is a top javelin thrower, and I believe that the javelin makers will be more than happy to sponsor him and provide what he needs.” This act of kindness and the commitment to supporting a fellow athlete not only revealed their friendship, but also the importance of backing competitors in their pursuit of greatness. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="A symbolic photo op at the World Championships" comment="subhead" text="A symbolic photo op at the World Championships">A symbolic photo op at the World Championships</cmsannotation> During the 2023 World Athletics Championships, a poignant display of sportsmanship occurred when Nadeem, lacking a Pakistani flag, was invited by Chopra to join him for a photo op. Posing together with the Indian flag as a backdrop, this gesture sent a strong message of unity and friendship, capturing their bond in a powerful visual moment that resonated with crores of people across the Indian subcontinent. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Defending Nadeem against media scrutiny" comment="subhead" text="Defending Nadeem against media scrutiny">Defending Nadeem against media scrutiny</cmsannotation> Chopra has consistently stood up for Nadeem, including during the 2020 Tokyo Olympics controversy, when Nadeem was seen using Chopra’s javelin for practice. As media narratives sought to stir discord, Chopra defended Nadeem, clarifying that sharing equipment is common among athletes. His swift defence underscored their mutual respect and Chopra’s commitment to protecting his friend’s reputation. The relationship between Neeraj Chopra and Arshad Nadeem exemplifies the essence of sportsmanship. Their friendship and respect not only defy the competitive nature of their sport, but also transcend borders, serving as inspiring examples for athletes, fans and countries altogether.

Neeraj Chopra and Arshad Nadeem: 5 instances that show the camaraderie between India and Pakistan’s javelin throwers

New Delhi: Elated at her son's <keyword id="19920397" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="silver-medal" source="keywords">silver medal</keyword>, <keyword id="22725606" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Neeraj-Chopras-mother" source="Orion">Neeraj Chopra's mother</keyword> Saroj Devi also expressed happiness for Pakistan's <keyword id="20865533" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Arshad-Nadeem" source="keywords">Arshad Nadeem</keyword>, who broke the <keyword id="22581045" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Olympic-record" source="keywords">Olympic record</keyword> to beat the Indian defending champion in Paris, saying that the latter is also like her "child". Chopra clinched the silver medal at the Paris Games with a season's best throw of 89.45m after <keyword id="20865536" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="nadeem" source="keywords">Nadeem</keyword> pulled off an Olympic record-breaking effort of 92.97m on Thursday night. <h2><keyword id="19968766" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="Neeraj-Chopra" source="keywords">Neeraj Chopra</keyword>'s mother on his win</h2> With the silver win, Chopra became only the third Indian and the first in track-and-field to win back-to-back individual Olympic medals. "We are very happy with the silver, the one who got gold is also our child and the one who got silver is also our child....all are athletes, all work hard," Saroj told PTI Videos in Khandra, Panipat, where the family is based. "Nadeem is also good, he plays well, there is no difference between Neeraj and Nadeem. We got gold and silver there is no difference for us," she added in the interview given on Thursday night. Both Chopra and Nadeem are good friends off the field despite being rivals on it. <h2>'Churma' awaits Neeraj on homecoming</h2> Chopra's fondness for "desi khana" is well-documented and his family is planning to welcome the two-time Olympic medallist with his favourite dish "Churma" "He did really well. We will welcome him with churma which is his favourite. I am delighted, people are lighting firecrackers, we are making ladoos," Saroj added. Chopra's performance is creditable also because of the highly-competitive field in which as many as seven athletes went beyond the 86m mark. "We are very happy. He produced his season's best. All were near 88-89m so competition was very tough. It's not about winning a gold or silver, but about winning a medal, and he did his best," Chopra's aunt Kamlesh said. Chopra is one of India's most decorated athletes, having won the gold at every tournament including the Olympics, World Championships, Diamond League, Asian Games and the Commonwealth Games. "After Tokyo there was no medal left except for silver, that was also needed so he got it," Kamlesh said. She said that the family had an inkling that Chopra was unlikely to win a gold after Nadeem's monstrous throw. "After Nadeem's throw (92.97m) we had a feeling (that he will win gold) but he is also our son, we are happy with him. "He's also Asia's son. We don't differentiate between Nadeem and Neeraj. Both have got gold and silver and we are very happy," she added.
