'This is Shine Jacob, 22 years old, living and working in Singapore. I knew Pullela Gopichand was in Singapore as our company was hosting the International Yonex Meeting and some of the big names in badminton were invited,' writes Shine.
'But the day after the meeting, the ace shuttler stepped into the office where I work and I was overwhelmed to see the star who raised the interest in the game to different levels in India. He quickly obliged to take a snap on this day, Oct 20, 2007, and I treasure this pic! I had a brief casual chat with him.'
Thanks Shine for sharing this picture!
