In December 2023, Sakshi Malik quit professional wrestling. She was India’s best-known female wrestler – the first and only female wrestler to win a medal at the Olympics – with fights both ongoing and ahead of her. It was an extraordinary gesture, a culmination of her and many other Indian wrestlers’ fight against the former President of the Wrestling Foundation of India (WFI), Brij Bhushan Singh.It is a fight that had seen her willing to risk all she had achieved, including the Olympic medal itself.
