The 17-time Grand Slam winner recently shared a video to encourage his young fans. The episode deals with 2 two boys, Petar and Nikola, who live in Macedonia and are suffering from autism.
It is actually a disorder in which an individual is not able to communicate and interact properly. Their father, Zoran Mijalkov, looks after them but doesn’t see them happy often. However, one night, his son Petar stayed up all night just to watch Djoker’s match.

“He stayed in front of the screen all the time. He watched the match until the end. And … since then – he hasn’t missed a single performance by Djokovic,” said the father.

Following this, the younger son also took an interest in Djokovic’s game. The father struggled to find a poster of Djokovic to place in their room but could not find one. But, Djokovic soon learned about the family and made a video to make them happy.
