"Whatever the outcome of the match today, Sindhu has made India proud," Gandhi added.
The shuttler from Hyderabad will strive her very best to become the first-ever woman Olympic champion from India across all sporting disciplines when she takes on world no 1 Carolina Marin in the gold medal contest in women's singles.
Yesterday, Sindhu defeated third-seeded Nozomi Okuhara of Japan, the current All England champion, 21-19 21-10 in 49 minutes with superb attacking play to also make sure that she is the youngest Olympic medal winner from the country.
Sindhu is a two-time bronze medallist in World Championships.
