Amitabh Bachchan congratulates Saina Nehwal

Megastar Amitabh Bachchan is impressed with young badminton player Saina Nehwal's performance, despite her loss at the BWF World Superseries Finals at Liuzhou, China.

"And well done Saina Nehwal, Indian Badminton Champ to reach final of World Super Series... lost to World No 1, good fight, took a set," posted Amitabh, a sports enthusiast.

Nehwal lost to Yihan Wang of China on Sunday but became the first Indian singles player to earn a title shot at the event. The ace Indian shuttler in fact even managed to win the first game against World Number 1 Wang but then lost steam to convert it into a victory.
