PASSIONATE HOBBY
She enjoys painting during her spare time, and feels the hobby benefits her sporting career. "I can't keep off painting, even when I'm away for a tournament. I can paint anything. It definitely helps me relax. When I am painting I don't think about anything else. I don't feel hungry or thirsty. I get completely lost. Whatever you do, it requires full focus. When I am painting, I get into that mode. That requires concentration, which ultimately helps in my training for shooting. I don't do any other meditation exercises." (timesofindia.indiatimes.com, 18 Mar 2018; indianexpress.com, 17 Mar 2018)

OCCUPATION
She joined Punjab Police in India as a sub-inspector in 2017. (dailynews-india.com, 14 Aug 2019; indianexpress.com, 01 Feb 2018)
