The highest-grossing Bollywood film ever isn’t a romance, but the true story of sisters from a rural village who became world-class wrestlers. Now they’re hoping their sudden fame will inspire other Indian women to break free.
The story of Mahavir Singh Phogat and his daughters is the stuff legends are made of. It is no surprise then, that the family is inspiring movies and books based on their lives. After all, everybody loves fighters, those who brave the odds stacked against them, and whose success becomes the success of the larger community and of the nation.
