In the opening scene,a typical government office suddenly converts into an akhada where Mahavir Singh Phogat (Amir Khan)and random colleague in office (Vivan Bhatena) play kushti and Mahavir defeats him.That colleague says:
Dangal is a biography of Geeta and Babita Phogat and their father Mahavir Singh Phogat,of course!Their journey from girls next door to becoming international level wrestling champions is truly inspiring.It only proves if you have stromg determination,readiness for hard work and a focused guidance,you can achieve anything.Story at its best,acting at its best!!Aamir Khan,as usual,at his bestest!!!The weight transformation he has gone through will astonish you!!Hats off to him and the roles played by the girls as the young and grown up Phogat sisters (Zaira Wasim,Suhani Bhatnagar ,Sanya Malhotra,Fatima Sana Shaikh.)One more special highlight of the movie is,entire story is narrated by the phogat sisters' cousin played by Aparshakti Khurana which is,as far as I know,an altogether new experiment in such movies!!And which has worked perfectly!!He is very natural at his dialog delivery.And his character puts some lighter moments in the story.

Dum hai tujh mein, state level champion Ko haraya hai”
Mahavir replies, “ Dil chota mat kar, national level champion se hara hai tu”

Take away of the movie is high respect for Phogat sisters,Mahavir singh Phogat!!The determination with which he trained his daughters to become whatever they are today.The challenges he has faced which did not stop him from achieving what he has decided.The dedication with which the sisters train themselves and put the hardwork in, under their fathers guidance, is truly commendable.
"Mhari chhoriyan,chhoron se kam hai ke" does not mean that girls are superior to boys but both are equal,always!!
