Rising wrestler 'Badshah Khan' from remote village of Neel eyes WWE Championships seeking government support

By IBNS
Jun 18, 2023..

In the remote village of Neel, located in Jammu and Kashmir's Ramban district, Arif's passion for wrestling was ignited by the legendary wrestler 'The Great Khali'. Enrolling in Khali's Wrestling Academy in Jalandhar, Arif's dedication and hard work caught the attention of his trainers, earning him the moniker 'Badshah Khan' bestowed by Khali himself.


Now counted among India's top five professional wrestlers, Arif's success rate of 85 percent in over 300 matches has made him an inspiration for aspiring athletes in the region.

Despite facing numerous challenges along the way, Arif participated in small wrestling competitions, gradually building his confidence and honing his skills alongside professional wrestlers. Leveraging social media, his wrestling videos went viral, amassing a substantial following.

Arif, who considers the ring as his kingdom, aims to represent India and Kashmir worldwide. Maintaining his wrestling prowess requires a rigorous training schedule of six hours of workouts and four hours of wrestling each day.

His ultimate goal is to compete in the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and become the world champion.

In pursuit of his dreams, Arif hopes for financial support from the Jammu and Kashmir government to further his sporting endeavors. He emphasizes the importance of sports in leading a healthy lifestyle and has been actively urging the youth to stay away from drugs.
