Meenakshiamma, or Meenakshi Gurukkal, as female teachers are referred to in Malayalam, has been associated with Kalaripayattu for the past 66 years.
The video showing her taking on a man half her age that went viral over social media is enough to make you feel unfit on your couch.
Kalaripayattu, one of the oldest martial art and known to the world, actually originated in the villages of Kerala.
A teacher of the martial art, Meenakshiamma can be seen taking on the man with incomprehensible ferocity, striking back both in offence and in defence. Against the opponent in an exhibition match, she does not let her guard down even for a second.
While the comment section was seen going gaga over the revival of the sport and how incredibly the lady performed, the time when this was being written, the video had already crossed 1 million views on Facebook.
