On top of that, Mahavir Singh Phogat is a former national champion. This is yet not the time for gym-toned bodies and common folks like to believe that wrestlers are physically superior to them. It is the early 1980s and wrestlers are treated as local heroes. This is the point where director Nitesh Tiwari had to decide the hero of the film: Will Mahavir curb his instincts and become an even more fierce coach, or will he let Geeta explore the horizon? He picks the first.Ĭhapter 1: Mission Impossible Mahavir has four daughters after some years. He loses and with it, the years of conditioning of women and male domination are thrown out of the window. As absurd as it sounds, the burly former wrestler, indeed fights his own daughter with all his might. He challenges Geeta for a bout where he would test her newly acquired skills. This is the beginning of a war that’s surprisingly physical and abnormally mental. He thinks his methods are better than the coach’s at the academy. He doesn’t like the way Geeta has been sucked into the new training regime. The tough patriarch wants his daughter to remain focused on the elusive international wrestling medals for India. On the other hand, the rustic Mahavir wants to keep things simple. She is more confident, ambitious, better skilled and ready to take on the world by storm. She isn’t exactly the same girl her father, former wrestler Mahavir Singh Phogat ( Aamir Khan), trained. Geeta Phogat (Zaira Wasim, Fatima Sana Shaikh) has just returned to Balali, her village in Haryana, after months of preparation at the National Sports Academy in Patiala. The 2010 Commonwealth Games are years away.
