00:00To be honest, I don't have much hope, but I have faith in God.

00:06God?

00:07Yes, God.

00:11So, according to the rules of United World Wrestling, what is the court's agreement?

00:18What can be thought of emotionally?

00:21Now, Vinesh has used all his strength, now it's a matter of devotion.

00:25And we have also prayed that this should be accepted.

00:28I am also not happy with this rule of United World Wrestling,

00:31that there is no need to check the finalist's weight the next day.

00:35Because the player who is working so hard,

00:37because on the 6th, Vinesh Phogat is showing the weight,

00:41and on the 6th, Durandar is defeating the wrestlers and reaching the final.

00:45That is all valid, right?

00:47Let that day be considered valid.

00:49By declaring the process of the next day invalid,

00:52why are you invalidating the process of the first day?

00:56So, this should not happen.

00:58I have also emailed United World Wrestling,

01:00that this violation, because the whole world is laughing,

01:04this rule of United World Wrestling,

01:07what wrong will I say, but this rule should be changed.

01:13How much hope do you have for silver, sir?

01:17To be honest, I have very little hope,

01:21but I have faith in God.

01:23God?

01:24God.

01:25So, on the basis of faith, I have faith in God.

01:29So, on the basis of faith, I want to get a medal this time.

01:33And Vinesh did the work of power.

01:35Now, the work of devotion is what we are doing.

01:38The whole of India is involved.

01:40And there should be a change in this rule.

01:42Change should be made from here.

01:44And from here, he should be given a silver medal.

01:46And this rule should be abolished.

01:48Next day he will win.

01:49Vinesh has joined, sir, the last question.

01:51Yesterday, Vinesh shared an emotional post about his retirement.

01:54He said, Mom, I lost.

01:56I won this wrestling.

01:57I can't do it now.

01:58I don't have the strength.

01:59I am tired.

02:00The whole of India was hoping.

02:02You must also be hoping, sir,

02:04that in the next, that is, in the LA Olympics,

02:07Vinesh will fight for the next medal.

02:10He will bring a medal to India.

02:11Because he had a golden career.

02:13He played for a long time.

02:14You have been wrestling for 20-25 years.

02:17If you can't get a medal after that,

02:19then there is disappointment,

02:20which is seen in Vinesh's post tomorrow.

02:22How are you seeing the decision?

02:24Look, Vinesh has taken the decision

02:27because there is also an age factor in wrestling.

02:30That your strength,

02:32because this is scientific.

02:34After 30 years, the body begins to shrink.

02:36Both for a common man and a player.

02:38But a person who lives a good life

02:40does wrestling for 35 years.

02:43Because this is not gymnastics.

02:45That as you get older,

02:47your flexibility will be affected

02:49and your performance will deteriorate in gymnastics

02:51and you will perform well at a young age.

02:53It all depends on the game.

02:54As much as there is flexibility in wrestling,

02:57when you know how to use your strength properly,

03:02then maturity has come in Vinesh.

03:04Vinesh has become a level.

03:06Don't miss out.
