PV Sindhu made the nation proud with her marvelous performance in the Rio Olympics. The Silver medal win made her the toast of the country. But amidst all of this, the Telugu states, from where she hails, were busy searching for what caste does the Badminton star belong to. You read it right, the search for her caste topped the Google search list after her Silver medal win. Sindhu's caste - the search query was relatively slow on Google till August 14 - picked up after the 21-year-old from Hyderabad beat eighth seed Tai Tzu Ying in the pre-quarterfinals. Since that game, the caste search saw a ten-fold jump after her stunning semi-final win over Japan's Nozomi Okuhara. It just peaked on Friday after her silver. PV Sindhu who was gunning for Gold at Rio was outclass by world number one, Spain's Carolina Marin on Friday. About 9 lakh Indians back home were on Google looking up for her caste, with telugu states Andhra Pradesh and Telangana topping the list. On social media too, people from both the states started discussions as to which state had helped her come so far and which state does she originally belong to, with the discussions only becoming murkier. Meanwhile Sindhu is soaking in the glory at Rio, and will soon be returning home to gorge on some delicious Hyderabadi biryani and also catch some movies at the theaters before she gets back to the Badminton courts.
