Bodybuilding: India and the subcontinent

[Rage]

With all the cynosure on a single sport in this cricket-crazy subcontinent, I thought it would be useful to focus on a different sport for a change. My attention was drawn to bodybuilding: a sport that is on the build in India these days (n.p.i.) like it were Markus Rhul on some krippy steroids with the proliferation of gyms and all those selflstyled gurus trying to pass themselves off as veteran virtuosos - both in India and the rest of the subcontinent.


So here's one, this is at the 47th Senior Mr. India national Bodybuilding Championship:
