Mumbai, Aug 26 (IANS) A string of Bollywood personalities like Amitabh Bachchan, Aamir Khan, Anushka Sharma among many others have hailed ace shuttler P.V. Sindhu for becoming the first Indian to win the BWF World Championships.
Sindhu defeated Japan's Nozomi Okuhara in straight games 21-7, 21-7 to lift the women's singles title in Basel, Switzerland on super Sunday, as India also defeated West Indies by 318 runs in the World Test Championship underway in Antigua.
