Blu Dangal Hd Movie 1080p Hindi Movies
Matt Dreher
Dangal is based on the true story of Mahavir Singh Phogat (played by Aamir Khan) and his two daughters, Geeta and Babita Phogat (played by Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra, respectively). Mahavir was a wrestler (dangal in Hindi), who was never able to achieve his goal of bringing home a gold medal for his country of India. So when his daughters showed a natural talent for fighting, he became their coach and raised them as champion wrestlers. In 2010, Geeta won a gold medal at the Commonwealth Games, and in 2012 was the first female Indian wrestler to qualify for the Olympics. Babita, her younger sister, also won a gold medal at the 2014 Commonwealth Games.

I was lucky to watch movie "Dangal" in the last few hours of 2016 & I must say that there are a lot of movies about which one says that it was amazing or one hasn't seen a better movie in a long time but all those adjectives and anecdotes fit best to "Dangal", more than any other movie that I have watched in a very very long time.
There were 3 things that were stitched in the story in a very simple manner but if you step back and think about the movie, they are nothing less than learning we take away from "Executive Learning Programs" or Top seller inspirational books. These were the 3 things that stood out very strongly for me and inspired me to take lessons from "Dangal" to my professional life:
2. Confidence & the kick of achievement - There was a moment in the story when the father decides to get a crew-cut hair for his daughters and in-spite of the constant pleading by the girls to not cut their hair and completely aware of the mocking that the girls will have to face from the villagers when they would step out of house. It could have been a make-or-break moment in the story as the girls could have easily turned rebellious and the whole story might have ended there itself (did happen too for few minutes in the movie too). But it was his confidence & ability to guide the energy that ensured the girls see what they were training / fighting the world for. After the 1st bout at the local akhara (wrestling arena) where the girls beat (thrashed is probably a better word) the so called pehalwana (wrestlers), they tasted the 1st blood of success. That I believe was the GAME CHANGER in the whole story. These small victories play a Very Important role in success of any entrepreneur (more like getting a KICK) and makes you belief in the idea more than ever.
3. The Art of Planning & Perfection - This is not about the story but how the movie was made. If you think about the story, it was a very simple story of a family & their extraordinary achievements that did change the outlook of a large part of the society by a leap. But from a Film making point of view, I feel that it could have been very easy to screw up the script and make a mess out of this movie if it hadn't been perfectionists who were involved in making this movie. Some very simple scenes were created with such art & precision that they were not only hypnotizing but also made you feel as if you are part of that family struggling everyday to fight the world and achieve the unachievable. So how does that happen? It happens when you put your heart to it, give your 120% and not do things the way they are done by everyone or by popular belief. Creating perfection cannot be done by copying someone's idea or creating a start-up just because it has been successful in another part of the world. It needs a very fine comb to understand how you make value for your audience and create a product that is so much better than all the others in market.
I strongly believe that there are inspirations and learnings all around us - in books, in movies, in real life stories. But there are some which leave a stronger mark than others, which you carry in your head for a long long time. This movie / story was definitely one of those for me. Yet again proven that there will always be a FIRST time to achieve anything new in this world - All it takes is a strong willed heart and mind.
Like me, you can probably name a handful of great sports movies about women (Stick It, anyone?? Just kidding, I mean A League of Their Own and that ilk). But I looked it up for you, and a vast majority of sports movies are still about men. Not only that, most women in these films are sexualized side characters with no physical agency. Dangal does fall into a few tropes, the most obvious one being the idea that we need to be convinced in movie after movie that women are just as good at sports as men. This mindset can be very easily traced to the struggle women are having now to receive equal pay to male counterparts.
Aamir Khan worked really hard for Dangal. He slept only 1 hour almost every day to make this movie and it is obvious that he is a very passionate actor. His movies are always meant to encourage people to reach higher than they ever thought possible. Some of his other movies that I would like to recommend: 3 Idiots and PK.
With a renewed interest, they started pursuing that dream. As usual, movies have up and down moments where it was not all rosy for them and they did not win all matches, still I was able to pick out a few lessons and relate them to how they can positively shape our lives.
Sometimes life has plans for us and we may be oblivious to them because we are uninformed about many things. For those still struggling to find their purpose, I believe you should just let yourself be free and open to various things before deciding. These ladies were open and even after getting into wrestling, winning the medal and becoming all grown, they could have chosen to give up after, but today, they are a source of inspiration to thousands of ladies in India.
This was one of the parts I found really interesting. The senior daughter, Geeta, moved into national champions bootcamp, learned new things and became more independent. When she came home for the holidays, she got into a conflict with her father, who was her first coach, on how his methods were old and contested with him in a mini fight, and eventually won him.
The point is this: her father trained her from a young age and knew her strength and weakness even more than the experienced coach, so he was able to position her better than her coach. Your roots are the people around you that always give you feedback, the moment you feel you are too big to listen to anyone or to take feedback, then you are on your way down. If you are at this stage in your life where you are struggling, then you need to check that you have good roots (friends, mentors, parents, siblings and other positive influence). They may be the one to help you find that thing you have been looking for.
When they started getting wrestling, there were a lot of talks here and there; the whole village talked about them, even schooling became difficult for them. They were made fun of because of their haircut and life was seemingly made more difficult. Still, they were able to shut out those negative noise, mockery and distraction. It may not be easy but one thing you need to realise is that not everyone can see what you are seeing. Only listen to people you are sure understand your vision and are willing to support you.
When they wanted to go into wrestling, one of the fears from the ladies and even their mother was that no one would want to marry them (which looks like stating the obvious because female wrestlers are not seen as attractive to men). One thing their father said, which struck me, was that when they become successful, men would come for them. The movie was based on a true life story, so I Googled the wrestlers and realised they are now both married to fellow wrestlers.

Dangal by Nitesh Tiwari is a wonderful film which explores the journey of Mahavir Singh Phogat and his daughters Geeta Phogat and Babita Kumari Phogat. Set in a rural area of India, we meet Mahavir, a former wrestler who had dreams of winning a gold medal for his country in an international competition, but due to financial troubles, failed. He still has hope that his children will someday achieve his dream; however, he is blessed with four daughters and zero sons. At that time girls were forbidden to take part in contact sports, and this is still true in some places today. Mahavir loses all hope to realize his dream. But then one day everything changes. The parents of two boys come to his front door with a complaint. Geeta and Babita had mercilessly beaten up their kids. It is then that Mahavir Phogat realizes that his daughters have the potential to be world class wrestlers, but how can he motivate them to achieve it?
Geeta: What kind of father forces his daughters to become wrestlers? Makes them wake up at 5 a.m. to run? Works them like slaves? Makes them fight boys? And if they protest, he cuts their hair. May God never give anyone such a father.
