Watched Dangal? Now Let’s Revisit Sultan Featuring Mahavir Phogat

An alternate ending that’s better than the original, we think.

Dangal is out in cinemas and is also getting its due appreciation. Strangely, the film didn’t really remind us of the other 2016 wrestling blockbuster Sultan. However, it did leave us imagining, what if Aarfa too had a haanikarak bapu like Mahavir Singh Phogat in her life? How different would Aarfa’s story be then? Would she give up her only dream of bringing home an Olympic gold for India that easily?

Can you imagine an alternate “happier ending" for Aarfa? We did. Take a look.
