THEY COULD OVERCOME FROM A TOTAL COLLAPSE

Amitabh Bachchan
Amitabh Bachchan gained popularity in the early 1970s. He became so dominant in the silver screen in the 70s and 80s. His name could bring films to high returns. Suddenly there came a time when number of his films failed consecutively and his production house too doomed. Eventually by 1997 all those led to a total financial collapse. Within a few years he returned to his old slot, most bankable, successful and respected film star all over the world. A good return from a total fiasco.

He didn't weep on his failures but boldly walked back to the place he had left a little early.
Sandeep Singh Bhinder
The well known SS Bhinder was one of the most successful hockey player in India. His international debut was in the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup in Kula Lumpur in 2004. He took over as the captain of the national hockey team in 2009. When he was at his peak, he had the best speed in the world in drag flick (145 km/h). SS Bhinder was seriously injured after being hit by an accidental gun shot in Shatabdi train in 2006 while on his way to join the national team leaving for the world cup in Germany just two days later. Bhinder was almost paralysed and put on a wheelchair for two years.

Not only Bhinder recovered from his injury but also strongly established himself in the Indian team. He became the captain of the national team and led the team for the Azlan Shah Cup in 2009 and won the final against Malaysia at Ipoh after a long wait of 13 years. He was also the top goal scorer in the tournament. His team also had resounding victory against France, 8-1, in an Olympic qualifier match. Bhinder scored 5 goals including a hat trick. He was also the highest goal scorer with 16 goals in the Olympic qualifier tournament.

The man who fought with the destiny and returned to success.
