Fayyaz Bukhari, who is the technical coach of Pakistan WAPDA, said in a conversation with Express at NED University Karachi during the Lok Sahta 54th National Athletics Championship that the life of Olympian Arshad Nadeem, who is gifted with God-given abilities, is full of hard work and struggle. Arshad Nadeem, 29, born to a Rajmastri family, became an overnight billionaire after the Paris Olympics 2026. However, misfortune befell him and Nadeem's performance continued to decline due to various injuries.

They say that Arshad Nadeem, who was born on January 2, 1997 in a village of Mian Chinnu, Tehsil of Khanewal District, Punjab, was fit for sports due to his tall stature and strength. Arshad Nadeem, who initially played cricket, football and kabaddi, had natural abilities. Arshad Nadeem, who came to get a job in Pakistan WAPDA in search of better financial problems, saw the hidden abilities and talents and guided him for better results in javelin throw competitions and hard work in this regard.

Arshad Nadeem also sacrificed his life to achieve his goal and continued the struggle. Their hard work paid off. Arshad Nadeem's motivation and drive to push forward after winning a bronze medal in the javelin throw of 55.33 meters at the 2016 South Asian Games in Guwahati, India, spurred him on.

Arshad Nadeem's better performance in the Asian Athletics Championship held in India the following year was encouraging, then in the Asian Games 2018 in Jakarta, Indonesia, Arshad Nadeem threw the javelin with a new national record of 80.75 meters and took the third position and won the bronze medal.
