Dipanshi Phogat: Becoming Her Own Champion | Wrestling | Reliance Foundation Sports
For Dipanshi Phogat, inspiration has always come from within. She never wanted to become like someone else - she wanted to become the best version of herself.
Her wrestling journey began at the age of nine, inspired by a family deeply connected to sport. Her father had wrestled, her mother was a kabaddi player, and with their unwavering support, Dipanshi found her own path on the mat.
Her first national medal gave her a glimpse of what was possible. Since then, she has continued to grow as a wrestler, developing her attacking style while working on every weakness along the way. Even after a difficult 2025, the support of her family and coaches helped her find her confidence and keep moving forward.
With Reliance Foundation Sports’ support providing her access to physiotherapy, nutrition, psychology, strength training and other resources, Dipanshi has continued to build herself both on and off the mat.
Now, after earning her place in India’s women’s 50kg wrestling squad for the Asian Games 2026, she has one goal in mind - to give everything she has and bring home gold.
Watch Dipanshi Phogat’s story as she prepares to take on her biggest challenge yet at the #AsianGames2026.
