Taekwondo is meditation for me: Neetu

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 03 Januari 2013 | 18.47

Neetu Chandra has been learning Taekwondo since she was in class III, but she started using it only when she came to Delhi. Recently, she was awarded the 4th Dan at the Korean Embassy.

Main neend mein bhi kicks maara karti thi
When taekwondo was introduced in my school, for the first two years, I would just watch my seniors do it. When I went in the third standard, my mother asked me to learn taekwondo. Ab hum log toh wohi karte hain jo mummy kehti hain. I started doing really well there. In the fourth standard, I won a gold medal at the district level championship. I could tell that my mother felt good about this and just to keep a smile on her face, I started practicing more. When I was in the sixth standard, I became state champion. After that, I participates in the nationals and represented Bihar seven times. I'm also getting awarded by Nitish Kumar on December 24.

Nobody would sleep beside me kyunki main neend mein bhi kicks maara karti thi. This award is like a dream come true for me. I could never imagine that the Korean government will be honouring me for taekwondo.

All Indian girls should learn martial arts
Bihar mein martial arts jaanne ki necessity hai. I would suggest that all girls in the country should learn martial arts. They should at least do a basic three-four year course. It's not like road par chalte waqt sabse jhagad lo but it's gives you confidence. It brings out your personality and you become smart. For me, it's become more for my mental peace now. It is meditation for me. Martial arts have motivated me during the low phases in my life. I have always been positive because of martial arts.

Needed to use Taekwondo skills in Delhi
I love coming to Delhi. Lekin yahaan mujhe bahut dar lagta hai. Agar aap shaam ko kahin niklein, ya airport pe kisi ka wait kar rahe ho, tab bhi aap dar jaoge, log is tarah se ghoorte hain. Aap kisi se nazar mila ke baat nahi kar sakte. I am scared to even look at those people. But since I know martial arts, I feel secure. Agar kal ko koi chhede, toh main abla naari type nahi rahungi main. Ironically, I have never used taekwondo when I was in Patna. I used it when I came to Delhi. Once, I was walking on the road and somebody held my shoulder from behind and said, 'excuse me, I think I've seen you somewhere'. I turned back with my leg in the position to kick him. You know, people do such things intentionally. If he genuinely wanted to ask me, he would have come forward and asked me. Kandha pakadne ki zaroorat nahi thi. Now I'm alert.

In Bollywood, out of sight doesn't mean out of mind
Ek saal film nahi karna koi badi baat nahi hai. I don't think out of sight means out of mind in Bollywood. You can't forget Tabu, Shabana Azmi and Maduri. Rani Mukerji didn't do any project for seven years. Nobody forgot her.
