New Delhi: Freestyle wrestler Geeta Phogat, the primary Indian to ever win a gold medal in wrestling on the Commonwealth Games, not too long ago took to her Instagram to share an inspiring message on lady empowerment and said that she bought a glimpse of her own life within the present ‘Maharani’.
The wrestling champion expressed that she felt impressed to jot down this put up after watching Huma Qureshi‘s new present ‘Maharani’ as she might relate to the storyline to a nice extent.
In the caption, she wrote, “Bachpan se bahut sunaya gaya hai mujhe wrestler banne ke liye. Ladki thi na, aur ladko ko unhi ke khel mein pachhaad rahi thi.’Kushti ladkon ka khel hai”Kitne chhote baal hai, tum ladke ki tarah dikhti ho’ Ek aurat ke liye mardon ki duniya mein apni jagah banana mushkil hota hai. Par main dati rahi. Maine dugni mehnat ki aur jeet haasil ki. Kyun bolte hain aurat ye nahi kar sakti, wo nahi kar sakti..koi rulebook thodi hai? (Since my childhood, I’ve been told off for being a wrestler. They would say ‘wrestling is for boys’, ‘why is yout hair so short, you look like a boy’, for a woman to create her place in a man’s world is really hard. But I stayed strong. I will work hard and win. Is there a rulebook that says women are less capable than men?)”
She additional wrote, “Logo ka kaam hai kehna, lekin tumhe peechhe mudke dekhne ki zaroorat nahi’ papa ki kahi ye baat maine apnaayi aur aage badhti chali gayi.
Haal hi mein maine #Maharani web series dekhi aur mujhe apni zindagi ki jhalak usmein nazar aayi. Log Rani Bharti ko neecha dikhane mein koi kasar nahi chhodte hain par woh sabko muh tod jawaab deti hai. Aise logon ko main bolna chahungi sudhar jao. Ab hum #SorryNahiSunenge. (People’s job is to say things, but you don’t need to back down. This is what my father used to tell me. It’s what pushed me forward. I recently saw Maharani web series and got reminded of my own life struggles. People are trying to look down upon Rani Bharti but she always strikes back. Now, we will not listen)”

For the unversed, the Bollywood movie ‘Dangal’ was primarily based on the life of Geeta Phogat and her sister Babita Phogat.
On the opposite hand, Huma Qureshi’s new present ‘Maharani’ revolves across the story of Rani Bharti, who’s all of a sudden referred to as upon to change into the following chief minister of Bihar after her husband resigns from the put up. The complete village is shocked at her being introduced as his successor contemplating the gender bias towards girls in politics.
It has been directed by Karan Sharma and in addition options options Sohum Shah, Amit Sial and Vineet Kumar and is streaming on SonyLIV.
