Hailing from Nizamabad in the heart of Telangana, Nikhat Zareen has etched her name in the history of boxing as a double-world champion.

Besides her boxing career, she has been a staff officer at the Bank of India since June 2021.

It was Nikhat’s father who introduced her to boxing. Under his watchful eyes, she trained for a year. She further honed her skills at the Sports Authority of India in Visakhapatnam, mentored by the renowned Dronacharya awardee, IV Rao, since 2009.
