Rio 2016: Shuttlers dressed their best for the Opening Ceremony

OLYMPICS has now officially begun, kicking things off with a beautiful and colorful opening ceremony. The Indian Olympic contingent was led by flag-bearer Abhinav Bindra.

The shuttlers looked all the more excited to be part of it.

Ashwini Ponnappa and Kidambi Srikanth took to social media to share some the images of the opening ceremony.

Looks like the women were wearing the Indian traditional wear, saree and the men in their suits off course.
