Nikita Mirzani Proud of Greysia Polii and Apriyani Rahayu Winning Gold at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics

Kapanlagi.com - The women's doubles pair Greysia Polii and Apriyani Rahayu have won the gold medal in the badminton event at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. Undoubtedly, the success of Greysia Polii and Apriyani Rahayu has made the Indonesian people proud, including the artist Nikita Mirzani.

Through her Instagram account, Nikita Mirzani uploaded a picture of the victory of Greysia Polii and Apriyani Rahayu while writing a caption that says, "Pride of Indonesia. Rise, my Indonesia. After 20 years, Indonesian badminton finally brings home the gold medal."

As an Indonesian citizen and a mother of three, she expressed her pride in the achievements of Greysia Polii and Apriyani Rahayu at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. She also shares in the happiness of the women's doubles pair's success.

"I am proud as an Indonesian woman, finally after a long time, Indonesia can bring its name back to the international stage with the Olympics. Yes, I am proud, happy. Especially for those who competed, even happier because they won the gold medal," said Nikita Mirzani at the Persari studio, South Jakarta, on Monday (2/8).

Nikita Mirzani said that Greysia Polii and Apriyani Rahayu's struggle so far has not been in vain. Considering that they have trained hard to bring honor to Indonesia on the international stage.

"So it's definitely a pride, it's impossible not to be, because they have been competing for quite some time. And they also had to be separated from their families because they had to focus on the Olympics in Japan. So what they have achieved is worth what they have done during their training period," she said.

She also added that the enthusiasm of the Indonesian people for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, especially in the badminton sport, is not too big. This is because they cannot watch it together in certain places due to the implementation of the Community Activity Restrictions or PPKM.

"If there was no PPKM, maybe people would watch it together, they would gather everywhere, but now they can't. So it feels normal. But when I read the news 'wow, finally Indonesia breaks the egg' like that," said Nikita Mirzani.

2. Nikita's Hope

Furthermore, Nikita Mirzani also has big hopes for Indonesian athletes who have not yet won a gold medal in the Olympics. She hopes that in the next Olympics, Indonesian athletes will also be able to bring home gold medals. "Maybe in the next Olympics, wherever it is, hopefully Indonesia can win many gold medals. Hopefully," Nikita Mirzani concluded. Anyway, Nikita is not the only artist who made a tribute post to celebrate the victory of the women's doubles Greysia Polii and Apriyani Rahayu. There are Ari Lasso, Ernest Prakasa, Raisa, Agnez Mo, and many more. Through her latest post on Instagram, Raisa even admitted that her chest felt tight because she was too proud when she heard the Indonesian national anthem being played in Tokyo. Well, once again, congratulations to Greysia Polii and Apriyani Rahayu on their victory, we are proud of you and thank you!
