Sushil Kumar, an Indian World Champion wrestler, on Sangram in TOI

Sangram is doing well in Bigg Boss: Sushil Kumar

With wrestler Sangram Singh on the controversial show 'Bigg Boss', his colleagues Sushil Kumar and Yogeshwar Dutt confess that sportspersons, especially people involved in games other than cricket are devoid of any glamour and therefore have to go on TV shows to get more popular.

Says Sushil Kumar, "Sportspersons like us, who are too busy training and focusing on our career, never get to come in the public eye like cricketers.The glamour quotient in cricket is fixed since the game is very popular in the country. It is sad that though the government recognises us, we have to be on reality shows to connect with the masses. There is nothing wrong in participating on the show, but then sometimes you lose your concentration on the sport so even when I was offered a reality show like Nach Baliye, I declined. I watch the show for Sangram and he is is doing well. He is my friend for years now."

On the other hand, Yogeshwar says that he would never tolerate the kind of nonsense Sangram is taking on the show. He says, "He is a simple man and it's only because of him that I watch the show. Yeh tu ta... aur gaalis sehen karne wala aadmi nahi hoon main. However, I agree that such shows would connect sportspersons more with the masses. Sangram is doing well on the show, but I wonder if it will help me if I participated in it, because I can't be as patient as Sangram." Edited by ManjuBlore - 10 years ago

Oh God!

How many posts based on one TOI article???

Just copy -pasting from another post:

Have they said anywhere Sangram won a Gold Medal in Commonwealth Wrestling Championhips?😲

Thanks to this marketed TV hype, may be they THINK, Sangram is a wrestler...and indeed he is a 'Wrestler' if you consider WWP or De Dena Dhan WRESTLING...and just saying we are with a PEHELWAAN!😊

That doesn't mean Sangram isn't lying when it comes to Commonwealth Gold Medal claim! Thats pure bullshit!

If sangram Wrong he should be Punished.but As per the law, one is innocent until proven guilty.😉

With all due respect please give others the opportunity to post their view point or look at other articles pertaining to him without rushing in to prove Sangram is a liar.

Most of us have read your post from earlier. Please give members the breathing room to form their opinion on the issue as well. It is up to you :-) :-)

it has already been proven that he hasn't won any commonwealth games gold medal.. and most of his achievements were "fabricated"..and that he's not an athlete, he does mock staged wrestling in poor man's WWF type show..

and nothing's wrong with that..its an occupation..but he hasn't won any official wrestling medals..
