Arshad Nadeem, Pakistan’s star javelin thrower, has been basking in the glory of his historic Olympic gold win. The athlete’s monumental achievement has not only brought pride to the nation but also earned him a heartwarming gift from his father-in-law, Muhammad Nawaz. To celebrate Nadeem’s triumph, Nawaz gifted him a buffalo, a thoughtful gesture rooted in their rural heritage and traditions.
Nadeem’s victory at the Paris Olympics 2024 has marked a watershed moment for Pakistani sports. His gold medal is the nation’s first-ever individual and track-and-field Olympic medal, making him a hero and a role model for many. The 27-year-old sportsman’s achievement has been hailed as a milestone, inspiring a new generation of athletes in Pakistan.
Nawaz, who married his youngest daughter to Nadeem six years ago, expressed his family’s immense pride in the athlete’s Olympic gold win. He told local media that he wanted to present Nadeem with a buffalo as a “gift” to celebrate his remarkable achievement. The couple has two sons and a daughter, and Nawaz praised Nadeem’s kind nature, saying that his daughter has always spoken positively about him.
Nadeem’s victory has been celebrated across Pakistan, with government ministers and a jubilant crowd greeting him at Allama Iqbal International Airport in Lahore. He was also warmly welcomed by his family and friends in his hometown of Mian Channu.
