Vinesh Phogat, the first Indian woman to qualify for the Olympic wrestling final, had to leave Paris because she did not meet the required weight for the competition.

So unlucky! The niece of the prototype of "Dangal" made it to the finals, but was disqualified for being 100g overweight

On August 6, local time, the Indian Olympic Association issued a statement saying: "Despite the team's best efforts throughout the night, she weighed 100 grams more this morning, exceeding 50 kilograms."

Competition rules stipulate that wrestlers must maintain their weight class during both days of competition. After Bogat was disqualified, only gold and bronze medals will be awarded in the women's 50kg wrestling competition at the Paris Olympics. It is worth mentioning that this Indian star is actually "very famous". She is the niece of the Indian wrestling star Mahavira Singh Bogat, the prototype of the Indian movie "Dangal" that was once popular in China. "Dangal" is adapted from Mahavira's true story and tells the story of a famous wrestler training his two daughters to become women's wrestling champions, but Vinesh is not in this movie.
