Thanu told BM that it was a matter of immense pride for her to be a gold medallist and this achievement symbolizes not only her hard work and dedication but also the support and encouragement of all those who have been part of her journey.

“I am from a middle-class family and my father Gopi and my mother Manjula are into hotel and catering work. I stand before you not just as a champion, but as a grateful child speaking about the unsung heroes of my life – my parents. They have been the silent architects of my success, the steady hands that guided me through life’s tumultuous waters. They sacrificed their own dreams so that mine can soar high. Their love is boundless, their support unwavering,’’ said Thanu.


She thanked all the lecturers and others for their help and praised her alma mater CMRIT.

She said that throughout her academic pursuit, she had embraced a multifaceted approach to learning, integrating theoretical knowledge with practical applications. “I followed a disciplined study schedule, dedicating hours each day to focused learning and practice. I prioritized understanding concepts rather than memorizing information,’’ she said. To all the aspiring students, she wants to say: never give up on your dreams, believe in yourself, work hard, and never be afraid to chase your passions. “With dedication and perseverance, anything is possible,’’ she said.
