Suniel Shetty appointed brand ambassador of NADA, Jwala Gutta express disappointment

Just yesterday, Bollywood actor Suniel Shetty was appointed, the brand ambassador for the National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA). However, India's top-notch badminton player Jwala Gutta and boxer Vijendra Singh have expressed disappointment over the matter as they believe that a sportsperson would have suited the role better. “According to me, a sportsperson should be made the brand ambassador of NADA. I do not know why we get attracted to actors. It’s time that we make a sports person the ambassador for NADA. It is an important organization for sports, so according to me a sportsperson should be the ideal choice,” PTI quoted Jwala as saying during the launch of her Academy of Excellence.

Beijing Olympics bronze medallist Vijender Singh also said a sportsperson could have been a good choice but was okay with Shetty getting the role. “It is a good thing. It is a sports body so a sports person like Sushil could have been the ambassador but Anna (Shetty) has been made and he is a fitness freak guy and I know him and wish him good luck.”
