Plot Summary

"Chottu Tiger," an absolutely terrific true story of a man who has lived possibly the most incredible life unknown to the world. An unbelievable tale of a man who kept bouncing back from one adversity after another with grit, determination and undying spirit. From wrestling in the rustic interiors of Maharashtra as a teenager, to representing India at the prestigious International Services Meet held in Tokyo, to fighting a War against Pakistan and getting disabled in that, to finally making it to the Grand Munich Olympics of 1972 and facing the Black September Terrorist attack.
