    About Mirabai Chanu

    Saikhom Mirabai Chanu is an Olympic silver medalist weightlifter who cemented her status as one of India’s greatest modern athletes at the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games. Born on August 8, 1994, in Nongpok Kakching, Manipur, she developed her formidable strength as a child by carrying heavy bundles of firewood from nearby hills. Chanu first announced her talent on the international stage by clinching a silver medal at the 2014 Glasgow Commonwealth Games in the 48 kg category. Overcoming the heartbreak of a disappointing outing at the 2016 Rio Olympics, she rebounded spectacularly to capture gold at the 2017 World Weightlifting Championships in Anaheim. She subsequently secured gold medals at both the 2018 Gold Coast and 2022 Birmingham Commonwealth Games, demonstrating remarkable technical consistency across the 48 kg and 49 kg divisions. In 2021, she established a world record in the clean and jerk by lifting 119 kg at the Asian Weightlifting Championships. Chanu's journey from a remote Manipuri village to the Olympic podium endures as a powerful symbol of resilience that continues to inspire aspiring female athletes across India.

    A genuine Vedic Kundli for Mirabai Chanu would need their exact birth time and place, and those are not in the public record. The Ascendant (Lagna), house placements, Nakshatra and Dasha timeline all change with just a few minutes' difference — so we don't invent a time or quietly default to noon. This profile therefore shows only what the birth date can honestly support: Sun sign, Moon sign (Rashi), Chinese zodiac and Life Path.
