Dara Singh was an epitome of strength and humbleness. Surely, there will never be a 'Hanuman' like him again. He will be deeply missed. May he soul rest in peace.

RIP to the great man.

Although he mostly lived in Mumbai, he also contributed to the local Punjabi film industry by creating Dara Studios, a large studio complex in Mohali in the 80s. The studios were largely used for hosting wedding functions and receptions since the Punjabi film industry went into decline in the 90s. But things are looking up now and an increasing number of movies are shot there.

He was role model for many and i hope he will remain always...

May his soul rest in peace.

‎''रुस्तम- ऐ- हिंद'' !!

जय श्री राम मेरे सभी जाट बंधुओं !!

इस पृथ्वी पर कुछ लोग ऐसे आते हैं जैसे कोई अवतार हो और हम सभी यही चाहते हैं कि वो सदैव हमारे अंग-संग रहें. अन्यथा चौरासी वर्ष की आयु कम नहीं मानी जाती, ऐसी ही एक हस्ती थे ''आदरणीय दारा सिंह रंधावा'' . भारतीय तरीके की कुश्ती को विश्व में स्थान और आदर दिलवाने वाले.

बाल्यावस्था में हम सब उनके जैसा बनने का सपना देखते थे. जब उन्होंने ''किंग-कोंग'' को हराया था तो हम जाटों की नहीं अपितु प्रत्येक भारतीय की छाती चौड़ी हो गयी थी.
आजकल के बालक तो नकली पहलवानों को देख देख कर प्रसन्न होते रहते हैं, जो नाटक करते हैं कुश्ती नहीं (सुशील कुमार जी एवं अन्य अपने जाट पहलवानों को छोड़कर) .
हमारे वास्तविक पहलवान तो ये ही थे जिन्होंने देशी अखाड़ों में अपने शरीर को तपाया और बलशाली बनाया.

'' जा-जा दारा सिंह मत बन'' पहले सब यही बोलते थे, आज भी कुछ लोग ये बोलते हैं, इस से व्यक्ति की लोकप्रियता का आकलन हो जाता है.
ऐसे वीर-महावीर पहलवान को नमन एवं श्रद्धांजलि.

जय श्री राम.
''जय बजरंग बली''

स्वर्गीय दारासिंह को शत-शत प्रणाम।

दारासिंह खुद तो कुश्ती के चैंपियन रहे ही, बाद में भी उन्होंने मशहूर दंगलों में "रैफरी" का रोल अदा किया। 1969 में दिल्ली में "भारत केसरी" का दंगल हुआ जिसमें मास्टर चन्दगीराम और ईरानी पहलवान मेहरदीन की टक्कर हुई । मेहरदीन सात मिनट बाद ही दंगल से बाहर हो गया । दारासिंह ने कहा - "भाई मेहरदीन, लोग यह कुश्ती देखने दूर-दूर से आये हैं, बीच में मत छोड़, हार-जीत तो होती ही रहती है ।" पर मेहरदीन चन्दगीराम के हाथ की पकड़ से घबरा गया था । दारासिंह ने चन्दगीराम को विजयी घोषित कर दिया ।

यहां जाटलैंड पर अजीब बहस चलती रहती है । कईयों ने तो यह भी लिख दिया था कि दारासिंह जाट है ही नहीं ! -

Dara Singh - Is He a Jat?
