Indian Wrestling, known as Kushti, is a traditional form of wrestling that has been practiced in India for centuries. It typically takes place in a circular clay pit called a akhara, where wrestlers, or pehlwans, compete against each other. The sport emphasizes strength, technique, and discipline, with wrestlers often training rigorously to build their skills and physical fitness. The practice of Kushti is deeply rooted in Indian culture and often involves rituals and customs. Wrestlers follow a strict diet and lifestyle, which includes a focus on natural foods and physical conditioning. Competitions can be held at local, regional, and national levels, showcasing the rich heritage of this ancient sport.
