Netizens want Aamir Khan to make Dangal 2 after Vinesh Phogat enters Olympic 2024 finals: ‘Her life deserves a Bollywood blockbuster’

As a fervent admirer of Indian sports and Bollywood, I cannot help but be overwhelmed by the indomitable spirit displayed by Vinesh Phogat at the Paris 2024 Olympics. Her journey to the finals, marked with relentless determination and grit, echoes the very essence of the Phogat family saga portrayed in the blockbuster film Dangal.


As an ardent admirer, I can’t contain my excitement as I pen down the momentous achievement of our beloved Vinesh Phogat! On Tuesday, August 6, during the pulsating Paris 2024 Olympics, she left everyone spellbound with her unparalleled skills in the women’s wrestling 50kg freestyle division. The opponent, Yusneylys Guzman of Cuba, was no match for our indomitable heroine, as Phogat clinched a resounding 5-0 victory!

When Vinesh Phogat clinched a remarkable victory in the women’s 50kg wrestling category at the Paris 2024 Olympics, the hashtag #Dangal started gaining popularity across social media platforms like X (previously Twitter). With such an impressive display, fans are now urging for a follow-up to the 2016 hit sports biopic Dangal, featuring Aamir Khan. Phogat’s commanding 5-0 defeat of Cuba’s Yusneylis Guzman Lopez not only ensured her place in the final but also made history as the first Indian woman to advance to an Olympic wrestling final.

1. A passionate fan expressed, “Hey @niteshtiwari22, prepare for directing Dangal 2! Our queen #VineshPhogat is almost certain to win a medal at Paris 2024. Thank you for making us proud #VineshPhogat.” Another user suggested, “Aamir Khan Sir, it’s time for the sequel of Dangal with #VineshPhogat.”

As a die-hard fan, if Vinesh Phogat manages to clinch the gold at these Olympics, I firmly believe that Nitesh Tiwari should commence work on Dangal 2! Sanya Malhotra could undoubtedly be an integral part of this sequel. #Olympics2021 #Dangal2 #SanyaMalhotra

One commented, “Dangal fame VINESH PHOGAT, the first-ever Indian wrestler to play in an Olympic final—this has to be the greatest redemption story in our country #Dangal #Dangal2.”

1. User1 wrote: “Her life story would be perfect for a big Bollywood movie. #VineshPhogat #Paris2024.”

The hit Bollywood movie, Dangal, which earned over Rs 2000 crore globally, is based on the true tale of Mahavir Singh Phogat, a wrestler who nurtured his daughters, Geeta and Babita, into India’s first female wrestling champions. Aamir Khan portrays Mahavir in this film, while Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra play the older versions of Geeta and Babita, and Zaira Wasim and Suhani Bhatnagar take on their younger roles. The movie additionally includes Sakshi Tanwar as their mother.

The movie’s deep emotional impact and significant cultural influence have left a lasting impression, sparking interest in a follow-up film, given the impressive feats accomplished by their relative, Vinesh Phogat, who carries on the family wrestling tradition. Vinesh Phogat’s path to the Olympic final has been extraordinary. She started her journey by overcoming the top-seeded and defending champion, Yui Susaki from Japan, in the Round of 16, and then barely edged out Oksana Livach of Ukraine in the quarterfinals.
