Parveen Hooda literally proved that the light indeed shines bright after the dark by bagging the gold medal in the women’s boxing 65 kg category at Asian Games 2026

It was a comeback for the Indian boxer, who was stripped of her Asian Games bronze medal three years ago for a whereabouts failure

She was suspended for 22 months by the International Testing Agency (ITA) because she committed three whereabouts failures within a twelve-month period

After her wonderful win at Asian Games 2026, sports psychologist Priyavrindha Pathikshared an emotional and inspiring story about her on Instagram

Pathik narrated the story by posting two pictures of Hooda, one which was her cheerful moment after the Asian Games 2026 gold medal but the other was taken on the day when she was handed the 22 month ban by ITA in May 2024

Pathik wrote, “Your Asian Games Champion, 2026 @parveenhooda_The picture on the right was taken on the day the ban was announced in 2024. Parveen and I went out for lunch that day to celebrate a very unpredictable journey but choosing to walk with unwavering faith that it would take her to the very top !

“Somewhere, that day, we made a commitment. And yesterday, we got to witness the first chapter of that comeback. The journey has been humbling in more ways than I can put into words.

“Parveen has reminded me that a champion is not someone who never falls apart. This is a story of resilience, perseverance and grace. The comeback we set an intention for two years ago had its appointed hour yesterday. So incredibly proud of you, Champion,” she added

Parveen recently made a beautiful post about her Asian Games 2026 win on Instagram and said that she dedicate her medal to her late cousin brother Hardik Rathee

“I dedicate this medal to my late cousin brother, Hardik Rathee.Word can never truly express how much we miss your presence.You will live in our hearts forever. May your soul rest in peace,” she wrote in a caption
