Pehlwan

This is a set of pictures taken with no PP work, one morning at sunrise near Scindia Ghat along river Ganga in Varanasi (Benaras).

Prithviraj and Vinod are two wrestlers (Pehlwan in Hindi), they are trained by a Russian coach.

The gym where we did those pictures is facing river Ganga which gave this vivid colors.

(The one in red langot is Vinod Pehlwan, while the one in white langot is Prithviraj)
