The film Kushti is the story of a small village in Northern India where wrestling is a popular sport and an important wrestling match is held every year. Every year rivals Avtar Singh and Jiten Singh try to beat each other in the wrestling match and gain the trusteeship of the village. Chander plays the role of a village simpleton and a post-master.
It filled with misunderstandings and misconceptions, of hidden identities and secret love-affairs and the outcome is simply hilarious. The movie begins to take a turn when a certain someone delivers a secret package in the wrong hands. Especially someone, who is bound to take advantage and manipulate the real owner of the package.
Avtar Singh has a young and a beautiful daughter named Laadli, with who Chander is madly in love. To get her father's approval for their marriage he was to first prove his prowess by wrestling with the 7 and half feet tall "Rama Krishna". The condition set by Avtar Singh is that Chander has to defeat "Khali" in the wrestling match
Kushti received mixed reviews, but mostly negative.[3][4] The total gross came up to about 3.5/5 score. The song "Rang Rasiya" was praised a lot, which helped the film from going down even lower in business.[citation needed]
