Almost Perfect - Stories Of Forgotten Indian Women Athletes

Even if you are not a sports enthusiast, you’ve most probably heard of Sania Mirza, PT Usha, Rani Rampal, Deepika Kumari, and Bachendri Pal.But what about Archana Venkataraman, Chekrovulu Swuro, Rita Gombu, Vandana Rao, and Sarita Devi?

Probably not.

While some soar to stardom, others remain in the shadows despite their exceptional talents. Welcome to Almost Perfect, a captivating series that unearths the remarkable yet often overlooked stories of Indian women athletes.

We shine the spotlight on those who competed alongside the best but never quite achieved the fame they deserved. Their names may not be etched in history, yet their resilience and determination inspire us.

This show is produced by Confluence Media for Radio Azim Premji University.
