Amid loud cheers from the crowd, the yoga guru was seen sporting orange shorts and wrestling shoes as he tackled his opponent with some ‘anokhi andaaz’ (unique style).

Such was Ramdev’s magic, that even Olympian wrestler Sushil Kumar was amused.

“The performance of Baba Ramdev was spectacular. People from all around the world should see his enthusiasm,” he said.

So, how did Ramdev learn all this trick? “Yoga gives the body a lot of strength. I used to wrestle 30 years ago and I thought of giving it a try again today,” he told ANI.

And, what’s Ramdev’s advise for future wrestlers? “Drink cow’s milk and kheer made of that.”
