In this episode of Eyeway Rubaru, we speak to the young para-athlete who refused to let vision loss define her limits.
Sakshi Kale began playing football in Class 3, hiding her practice sessions from her parents, and eventually finding her path in para-athletics through mentors who believed in her potential. Despite societal criticism, academic struggles, and the challenges of low vision since childhood, she continued to chase the field — and made it to the national and international stage.
In this conversation, Sakshi shares:
How sports shaped her life from a very young age
The turning point that led her to para-athletics
The challenges she faced as a visually impaired girl in school and society
The pride of representing India
Her message to young people with disabilities
A story full of determination and heart — Sakshi reminds us that passion finds its own path, no matter where you begin.
