Ranaut praised Phogat’s performance but used the occasion to remind followers of the past protests Phogat had been involved in against the former Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) president, Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh. The Paris 2024 Olympics witnessed a historic moment on August 6, when Vinesh Phogat became the first Indian female wrestler to reach an Olympic final. Her outstanding performance in the women’s 50kg wrestling category, with a decisive 5-0 victory over Cuba’s Yusneylis Guzman Lopez, has captured the imagination of sports enthusiasts across the globe.
However, the excitement surrounding her achievement was momentarily overshadowed by a sharp comment from actress and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut. Kangana Ranaut on Vinesh Phogat pic.twitter.

After a quarter-final exit in the previous two Olympics, Phogat entered the Paris 2024 Games with renewed vigor. Her triumph over reigning Olympic champion Yui Susaki of Japan in the Round of 16 set the tone for her impressive run.
In the quarter-finals, Phogat outwitted Ukraine’s eighth seed Oksana Livach, showcasing a blend of technical prowess and mental toughness. This victory over Susaki was particularly significant, ending the Japanese wrestler’s 82-match winning streak and marking a pivotal moment in Phogat’s career.
