On International Women's Day, wrestler Sakshi Malik took to Twitter to wish women
New Delhi:
Olympic medal winner Sakshi Malik is an inspiration for many. But who inspires the wrestler from Haryana? All the women who 'wrestle' their way through life every day. In a special women's day video, the wrestler pledged her support to the countless Sakshis in their dangal of life.
The video shows the Olympian dressed as women from different walks of life - a cop, a chef, a nurse, an engineer. The message? The arena maybe different, the battle is same.
