Harmilan Bains is no stranger to challenges. After not losing a single individual race in 2021, she went through a knee surgery which kept her out for 10 months.

Upon her return to action, she went on to win the silver medals in the women's 800m and 1500m categories at the 2022 Asian Games.

Once a national record holder in the women's 1500m, Bains revealed the fact that she was in depression after failing to qualify for the Paris Olympics 2024 and also contemplated suicide at a point but used her situation as an example and sent an inspiring message to the young athletes of the nation. "My message is enjoy your sport, don't be so stressed, because I was under stress after missing my Olympics.

I was almost in depression. Thoughts were coming in my mind, like suicide and just quitting everything, run away from my city.
