Nami Rai Parekh, a proud national level holder of silver and bronze medal is an inspiring fitness model not only for the people of Chhattisgarh, but for the world. Her zest for bringing glory to the country is unmatchable as she dares to dream beyond the ordinary. The 29 year old athlete has made the right incorporation of her talent and passion to make way for the world holder glory.


When she got married and moved to Chhattisgarh, Nami, realized the lack of opportunities available for her to train herself so she started making most of the opportunities available around her. Nami practiced for endless hours in the field and kept the dream of being a world record holder alive in her.

The Indian powerlifting stalwart also wishes to offer the best state-of-the-art facilities for the upcoming hurdlers in Chattisgarh. ‘I did not let excuses come in my way and chased my dream no matter what. Fitness is a lifestyle and that’s what I want to teach everyone.’
