The much hyped movie 'Dangal' which has taken its root to Ludhiana has finally begun shooting. The Phogat family was present to witness the first shot along with the entire cast and crew.

The movie Dangal` is a biopic on the life of a wrestler Mahavir Singh Phogat and his struggle in life. The first day of the shoot became so special that producer Siddhart Roy Kapur didn`t want to miss out on anything. So he attended the shot and everyone was in surprise.

It looks like Aamir so much wanted to be in character that he didn`t mind putting on 35 kilos for the movie. This movie will release during Christmas, waiting to see Aamir in a new avatar.
