Top 10 Bodybuilders In India
There is nothing unusual about the predicament of sports other than cricket in India. Even while it's encouraging to see sports like badminton and football gain popularity, the government continues to ignore a number of other sports. Bodybuilding is one of these absolutely disregarded sports. The Indian Body Building Federation is still not recognised by the government despite having world-class bodybuilders. We express our worry about this sport.
The top 10 Indian bodybuilders in the world, who every Indian should be aware of, are listed here.
