In an interview with the Times of India, PV Sindhu went on to merit Srikanth for helping her work hard and return back to her optimal fitness.

"I toiled very hard to prepare myself for the Worlds. I did not change my food habits as junk food is not for me. But the only sacrifice I made was to subject my body to a lot of strain. I have been training with Srikanth Varma for the last two years at Suchitra Academy. He knows me and he plans on areas I need to work on, what changes to be made, etc. He takes care of my fitness," she said.

Having won the world title, PV Sindhu will now lay her eyes on Super Series tournament, while also looking to secure her qualification into the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo.
