Aryan Nehra, the 19-year-old swimming sensation from Gujarat, matched Advait Page's 'best Indian time' at the ongoing World Championships. In the 800-meter freestyle heats, Aryan clocked an impressive 8:00.76, equaling Page's record.
This time was a significant improvement from his previous personal best of 8:01.81, achieved just a few weeks ago at the Nationals in Hyderabad.

Aryan's journey in swimming has been nothing short of inspiring. As a young talent, he has shown immense potential and is steadily becoming a prominent figure in Indian swimming. With his dedication and talent, he has consistently broken barriers and pushed his limits.
The 1500-meter freestyle event is yet to come for Aryan at the World Championships, and fans and experts are eagerly looking forward to witnessing his performance in this challenging event. Given his current form and determination, there is no doubt that he will give it his best shot.
It is important to note that swimming is a sport that demands incredible discipline, hard work, and precision. The tiniest of differences in timing can have a significant impact on results. Aryan's ability to constantly improve his timing reflects his dedication and the efforts he puts into his training.
The support and guidance of coaches and mentors have also played a crucial role in Aryan's journey. They have nurtured his talent and fine-tuned his techniques to help him achieve his full potential.
