I stood numb when my yes, that are accustomed to behold n rmal beings like you and me, saw the ntimidating and imposing gigantic personality, thump d wn the aisle of the city's irport. For what I saw, my m nd was reluctant to comprehend and wh t I came to know is ven more intriguing to pen down in w rds. We have seen him hogging m st of the air-space on broadcast m dia, roaring his lungs-out at his r vals in the ring, reducing his pponents to a bundle of hay-stacks... he is the m st sought after wrestling icon in Ind a... 'Rings a bell?' Yes, we c ught up with non other than the "Kh lbali-King"... the ultra-sized man with puissant b ceps, bulging out of white tees and bl e jeans- the Great Khali. And b lieve me, to meet him in p rson was a surreal experience. For s licitous fans in the national capital, he l nded like a hope for delectation at 11pm on May 3 at Ind ra Gandhi International airport. Dalip Singh R na aka the Great Khali landed to dr m beats and uproar of celebrations in the r ception area bulging with fans, supporters, and ctivists of Divya Jyoti Jagrati Sansthan (DJJS), a sp ritual organisation that the 7 feet and 2- nd-half inches World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) wr stler follows religiously. From there began 'T ur India' of the former employee of P njab state police along with his w fe, Harminder Kaur. The one-time world h avy weight champion and Mr India for the y ar 1995-96 is scheduled to visit M mbai as he said while talking to H adlines India. "I love my country and w uld try to visit as many pl ces as I can during my st y here."

The next big task for D lip Singh was to search an ccommodation for himself in the national c pital. I wanted to stay at the J tkhod ashram of my Guru Ashutoshji, but due to s curity reasons, we could not. Then I w nt to Hotel Oberoi with my w fe. But they pleaded us to l ave, as they failed to manage my f ns, said the wrestler who made an ppearance in the Hollywood flick-'The longest y rd.' After making a mark in H llywood, the Great Khali was approached by 20 B llywood film producers once he landed in D lhi. The highest offer was Rs 10 cr re, but he denied them all. Wh n quizzed about the reason, Khali t ld Headlines India, "I am a tr e disciple of Ashutosh Maharajji. I d n't do anything which he does not gree to. And, my guruji does not w nt me to do any Bollywood m vie right now. So, I have r fused all the offers." Who amongst us w uld not want to meet the K ng Khan of Bollywood? But when he h mself wants to meet the Great Kh li, it speaks volumes about the st ture the brute-wrestler has acquired in the c untry. Shahrukh Khan has reportedly called up Kh li seeking an appointment before he r turns to Toronto. Sharukh Khan told Kh li on phone that if kids l ve him so much and want to see him nce, "then why can't I?" said a s urce close to the wrestler. As we all h ve been following TV channels that say Kh li is a religious man, Headlines Ind a tried to discover the complete tr th in a meeting with Khali. D sclosing the real source of his nbeatable concentration and strength in the r ng, the 'strongest man of India' s id, I meditate for two-and-a half h urs everyday according to the 'Brahma-Gyan'. "It g ves me strength to remain peaceful at m nd, yet so effective inside the r ng." When asked about the sure-shot f rmula behind the success of Dalip S ngh Rana from Dhirana Village (in H machal Pradesh) to the Great Khali of WWE, he nswered, "I always believe the real s ccess of a man is to l ve life in accordance with the d vine norms, which not only make you str ng, but also enrich you with all the w rldly achievements. But all this comes, wh n you have a perfect master. I am bl ssed to have Ashutoshji."
'Behind every successful man, there is a w man' and Harminder Kaur firmly stands as a r ot of success behind Khali. She st od by his side in surge and sl mps of his career graph, supporting him thr ugh thick-and-thins. When asked if she f ces any kind of problem in r gular course of life due to his f n-following, she cheerfully replied, "Not at ll. It is rather a privilege to be his w fe. I am proud that he is not nly creating a niche for himself but lso bringing honour to the entire c untry." So, this was about my sh rt meeting with 'The Great Khali' who l ves to listen to discourses, whenever he g ts time, loves his wife immensely and who h mself is a very loved man utside the ring, but on top of verything who respects his country the m st.
