Chandrakant Pahelwan

Thrilled to embark on showcasing the rediscovery of Hyderabad's forgotten wrestling halls that deserve more attention! These narratives are of immense importance, and I aim to continue shining a light on them. Let's give this art form the recognition it deserves, ensuring it thrives for generations to come.

Chandrakant Singh's journey in the world of Kushti began at the age of seven, guided by his father. His dedication and talent led him to train under the esteemed “Tulis Ram Kalifa” where he built a strong foundation in the traditional Indian wrestling style. Later, his skills were honed further under the official training of “Khaleed Bin Esa” at the renowned LB Stadium Hyderabad.

Today, Chandrakant is passionate about nurturing the next generation of Kushti champions. He runs an akhada, where He trains approximately 50 students both in morning and evening sessions, offering them free training.. With the vigilant support of Sandeep Yadav, a state player and national referee, he ensures his students receive top-notch training and discipline.

Chandrakant's career is a testament to his prowess, with over 20 national titles to his name and an incredible unbeaten streak lasting 10 years. His achievements highlight his exceptional talent and unwavering commitment to Kushti.
