Neeraj earlier said that he hopes to cross the 90m barrier this year. In hindsight, Chopra thinks he could have achieved the mark in Stockholm. "In this new year, I hope I will put an end to this question. I could have done that if I landed my foot a few centimetres ahead. Yes, it's just a matter of six centimeters -- but a magical mark for an athlete. Whenever you talk about a top athlete we all say like this he's done 90m," he said.

"But I'm not bothered about the pressure of expectations. It will happen when it has to. It could have happened last year or the year before, but maybe God has kept a perfect time and place for that." He's not bogged down by the pressure of expectations and said he always took them positively.

"I don't think much about the expectations. Yes, you have to handle both your own and others' expectations. But when I'm competing, my mind goes blank."
