She had the time of her life in Tokyo with a medal on Olympic debut being the icing on the cake but Indian boxer Lovlina Borgohain says all of it is "done and dusted now" and she will start afresh in every aspect of her game for the Paris edition in 2024.

Borgohain, who clinched the welterweight (69kg) bronze, spoke about the hardships she endured to get where she is and how her regular life now becomes much more eventful thanks to overnight fame.

"My first sacrifice was to stay away from my home for the past eight years and not being there for my family in times of their problems and watching from a distance. This is the biggest sacrifice," she said.

She does plan to take a holiday now before getting down to prepare for a better medal in Paris. "This Olympics is done and dusted. I will have to start afresh in every aspect," she said.
