Nikhat Zareen has added another feather to her cap as she won her second gold medal at the Women's World Boxing Championships on March 26. The 26-year-old Indian boxer defeated Thi Tham Nguyen of Vietnam in the final of the 50kg category at the KD Jadhav Indoor Hall in New Delhi. This victory not only defended her title from the previous edition but also made her the first Indian female boxer after Mary Kom to win two gold medals at the World Championships.

Nikhat's journey to this historic moment has been nothing short of remarkable. She won her first World Championships gold medal in Istanbul in 2022 and followed it up with a gold medal at the prestigious Strandja Memorial tournament later that year. Last year, she won a gold medal at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, making her a force to be reckoned with on the global stage.

Earlier, after winning a gold at Birminghan 2022 Commonwealth Games, Nikhat Zareen, recreated Salman Khan's Saathiya Tune Kya Kiya song from Love with the star himself. She shared a video of the same and thanked the Sultan actor for giving her a major 'fan moment'.

She wrote on Twitter: "Finallyyyyy intezar khatam hua❤️ @BeingSalmanKhan #fanmoment #dreamcometrue #salmankhan"
