Home > News Shots > India newsThis teen from Kerala's Thrissur district, who took social media by storm after a video of her riding a horse in a school uniform went viral has revealed her special reasons of riding a horse that exciting day.
The girl identified as Krishna, said that the viral video was recorded when she was going for her last Class 10 board examination. In the video, she can be seen confidently riding the horse in good speed on a narrow town road as she firmly held on to the horse's neck.
Krishna took up horse riding as a hobby when she was in Class 7. After years of training, she felt so comfortable riding a horse, and she has earlier too rode the horse to school.
On speaking to Asian News International (ANI), Krishna said "I do not go daily on horses. Only on some special days, or when I get bored or on some exam days also, I ride on a horse to school. If you ask me what was special on that day that was the last day of my 10th standard board exam. One of my friends said that riding a horse isn’t that easy and it’s not possible for a girl to do that. He said it’s only possible for women like ‘Jhansi Ki Rani’. So I thought why not a normal girl can ride a horse."
Days back, Krishna’s video garnered her a ton of praise on social media. Not forgetting her biggest fan, business tycoon Anand Mahindra, who was shocked to see her in the video. Without wasting time, he praised her on social media saying "Does anyone in Thrissur know this girl? I want a picture of her and her horse as my screen saver. She’s my hero ... The sight of her charging to school filled me with optimism for the future ...”
Brilliant! Girls’ education is galloping ahead...A clip that deserves to go viral globally. This, too, is #IncredibleIndia https://t.co/y1A9wStf7X
