Rajma Chawal Or Butter Chicken, Protein Shake Or Lassi; This Is What The Great Khali Chooses!

The Great Khali showed his fun side in a recent episode of Tere Gully Mein. He spoke about his wrestling journey, shared insights into his diet, and even gave us a tour of his dhaba and gym in Haryana. We also played an exciting game with him, where he had to choose between two options. From picking between food items to making some interesting choices related to fellow wrestlers, we engaged him in a rapid-fire round of thoughtful choices. Let’s see what Khali’s choices really were!

Take A Look At Khali’s Pick During The Game

The first choice Khali had to make was between Chole Bhature and Sarso Da Saag, and the WWE legend went with Sarso Da Saag, which he loves pairing with the classic Makke Ki Roti. When asked to pick between Paneer Tikka and Chicken Tikka, he chose Chicken Tikka without hesitation. While talking about his wrestling diet, Khali revealed that he used to consume a lot of chicken during his wrestling days to maintain his strength.

Next up was the battle between Butter Chicken and Rajma Chawal, and Khali surprised us by choosing the desi Rajma Chawal as his favourite. As for drinks, he’s a true desi at heart, choosing Desi Lassi over a Protein Shake. When we asked if he used to have protein shakes during his wrestling career, he quickly responded, “Nahi, mai protein shake pehle se hi nahi pita tha.” And when asked to either beat The Undertaker in the Great Khali Thali Challenge or face him in the ring, Khali, of course, chose to challenge him in the ring. And when it came down to a quirky final choice between Bollywood Ka Set and WWE Ring, Khali surprised us with his choice. He ditched his WWE ring and chose Bollywood over it!

How He Made It To WWE

We asked Khali how he discovered wrestling as a career and who guided him in the beginning. He said, “Us time wrestling cable pe aati thi aur us time bada shauk aur craze tha wrestling ko leke. Toh woh sab dekh ke aur search karke phir humne e-mail kiya kaafi academy ko ki pata kare kaun wrestling sikhata hai, aur jab response aaya toh waha se shuru kiya.”

Initially, Khali thought there were many things that made him unfit for wrestling. But through conversations with people, he realised that he was, in fact, perfectly eligible for it. He shared that the journey was long; you don’t just walk into the WWE ring and start fighting with big names. He trained for a year, performed in shows across the world, and only then made it to WWE.

He also revealed that he was misguided by agents during his wrestling journey. To hear the full story, watch the complete episode on the Curly Tales YouTube channel.
