Chopra addressed the students, sharing his success story, the challenges that he faced, and the hard work he exerted to achieve glory. He urged the students to pursue their passions and never give up on their dreams. He also emphasised the importance of discipline, dedication, and determination in pursuit of success.

This segment was followed by a kids’ relay race flagged off by Chopra amidst jubilation. The participants of the race were honoured with certificates issued by the Athletic Federation of Qatar.
