"wrestling! The film "Dad" once swept the world, setting a box office record of nearly 65.438+300 million in China, and the story touched countless people.

It is worth mentioning that the film is adapted from the true story of Indian wrestler Ma Havia Singh Pelgas, and the reality is more dramatic than the film:

In real life, Mahavia did not raise two daughters, but four! Moreover, his two nieces are also wrestling champions in India.

The eldest daughter, guitar, was born in 1988, and won the women's wrestling 55kg class in the Commonwealth Games in 20 10. She was the first female wrestler to win the wrestling championship in Indian sports history, won a medal in the world championship and participated in the London Olympic Games in 20 12, becoming the first female wrestler to qualify for the Summer Olympic Games.

The second daughter Babita was born in 1989. 20 14 years Glasgow Commonwealth Games women's freestyle wrestling 5 1 kg gold medal, two Commonwealth wrestling championships gold medal. 20 12 bronze medal in the world wrestling championship.

The third daughter, Ritu Phogat, was born in 1994, and won the gold medal in the women's 46kg freestyle wrestling competition at the Commonwealth Games in Singapore in 20 16.

The fourth daughter, Sangita Phogat, was born in 1998, and is also a rising star of Indian women's wrestling.

Mahavia family

Venash, who won the gold medal in this Asian Games, is no ordinary person. She is the niece of Mahavia, born in 1994.

20 13 years old, 19 years old, won the bronze medal of women's 5 1 kg freestyle wrestling at the Asian Wrestling Championships held in New Delhi, and then won the silver medal at the Johannesburg Tour in South Africa.

In 20 14 Incheon Asian Games, she won the bronze medal. In the same year, she won the women's 48kg freestyle wrestling championship at the Grasse Federal Games, and her cousin Barbita won the second place.

Vinash participated in the Commonwealth Games before.

Vinash's sports career was not smooth sailing. At the 20 16 Rio Olympic Games, she was regarded by India as the most promising candidate to win a medal, but in the quarterfinals, she had to withdraw from the competition because of a knee injury.

Last year, the Indian Wrestling Federation suspended her competition for violating discipline. Although she won the gold medal in the 20 18 Commonwealth Games, the failure in the Olympic Games was always an unforgettable setback for Vinash.

This time, at the Asian Games, 24-year-old Vinash had the last laugh in the women's freestyle wrestling 50kg final, and defeated a powerful Japanese opponent 6-2 to enter Jiang Xue and win the gold medal.

This is India's second gold medal in this Asian Games and the first women's gold medal. This is a milestone in Indian women's wrestling. Previously, no Indian female athlete had stood on the highest podium in the wrestling event of the Asian Games.

In fact, it is also an accident that Venash can embark on the road of wrestling today. According to indianexpress, her father died at the age of 9, and her uncle Mahavia raised her, so Vinash and her cousins kept practicing wrestling year after year.

Venash and her cousin were in the rural training ground that year.

As in the movie, Mahavia's efforts to train his daughter and niece in wrestling were severely "resisted" by people around him. Under the long-standing local gender discrimination, female wrestling is an "immoral" behavior.

Gita once recalled in an interview with sportskeeda, "At that time, all our villagers were very opposed to us, but our father did not waver."

Vinash once talked about wrestling! Dad, she said, her uncle Ma Havia trained them to be at least ten times tougher than in the movies.

In the movie, Aamir Hussain Khan plays Ma Havia who strictly trains her daughter.

Gita said: "It was not until we started winning medals that people's minds began to change a little. I hope we can change the concept that' girls are a burden to the family'. "

Now, when the Weinasi family returned to their hometown again, they were greeted not by angry accusations and curses, but by the smiling faces of countless people.

Now, Vinash and her cousins have overcome gender discrimination with their achievements, and she has a bigger goal: to win the first Olympic gold medal for Indian wrestling in Tokyo two years later.

Vinash (middle) won the gold medal in the Asian Games.

After Weiners won the championship, amirkhan expressed his blessing on social media: "We are all proud of you."

Less than five minutes after Vinash won the Asian Games, Indian fans changed her wiki page because she became a figure who made history for Indian women's wrestling.

Due to the influence of Vinash, Haryana has become the state with the most sports medals in India, and the level of athletes here has been greatly improved.

Venash said: "I hope this is a starting point for me to win the gold medal in the 2020 Olympic Games."

In India, wrestling is a popular and concerned sport, but so far, the total score of wrestling in India is only four medals, none of which is a gold medal.

Vinash said, "We won the bronze medal and the silver medal, but the gold medal hasn't arrived yet. So no matter who succeeds in winning the gold medal, he will become a national hero. "
