Actor and bodybuilder Raghu Ramappa has recently achieved two gold medals and two silver medals at the INBA PNBA New Zealand Pro Am International Pacific Rim Championships 2024 in Auckland. Following months of dedicated hard work and overcoming financial obstacles, he expresses his joy in seeing his efforts pay off. Raghu is thrilled to announce that he has qualified for the prestigious Natural Olympia event, considered the Olympics of natural bodybuilding, to be held in Las Vegas in November. With over 200 athletes from 20 countries participating in the championship, Raghu reflects on his journey in bodybuilding since his college days, crediting his father as his initial coach who instilled a love for the sport in him. Raghu emphasizes the importance of pursuing bodybuilding in a natural way without resorting to harmful steroids, contrasting it with the prevalent use of such substances in the industry. Despite challenges in securing sponsorships for international competitions, Raghu acknowledges the support he received from friends for his recent endeavor. He laments the lack of support for sports other than cricket in India, attributing this to the prevailing obsession with cricket and the failure to nurture talent in various sporting disciplines."Everything you see in movies is often based on reality. Raghu notes that if schools prioritize sports and effectively recognize and develop talent, the situation can improve."
