New Delhi: Gold Medalist and Olympian wrestler Geeta Phogat on Friday shared an open letter in appreciation of the recently released Marvel Studios' ‘She-Hulk: Attorney at Law’ on Disney+ Hotstar.
Phogat, an icon of women empowerment and inspiration to millions of girls, said she resonates with superwoman She-Hulk and wants to be gym buddies with her.
“Be it her career or personal life, team or family, girls easily maintain a balance between everything.
I have learnt one thing from my Phogat family and my competitors that we have to respond to every challenge and meet the highest expectations— everyone should learn this from girls,” said Phogat in her letter.
“Similarly, there is a super woman She-Hulk! Watching Marvel’s new superhero, I realised that she is our type of hero. Absolutely fit, I want to make She-Hulk my gym buddy. Our lives are also almost similar.
"She protects people as a lawyer, and I do the same as the DSP. Be it the court or the ground, it’s exciting to defeat the opponent. You all should watch She-Hulk, and then you will also say ‘mhaari chhori, kisi chhore se kam hai kay’,” she added.
Exploring the legacy of the Incredible Hulk in the cinematic universe for the first time since 2008, the series will introduce Emmy Award-winning actress Tatiana Maslany as Jennifer Walters, AKA She-Hulk. With her specialisation in superhuman-oriented legal cases, Tatiana Maslany will navigate her new smashing green persona and her role as a lawyer in the series.
Along with Tatiana, the nine-episode series stars Ginger Gonzaga as Nikki Ramos, Jennifer’s best friend and paralegal; Jameela Jamil as superhuman Titania, She-Hulk’s nemesis and Tim Roth as surprise new client Emil Blonsky/ Abomination.
The series also features special appearances by Mark Ruffalo as Jennifer’s cousin Bruce Banner/ Hulk, and Benedict Wong as Wong. Directed by Kat Coiro and Anu Valia, the series has been written by Jessica Gao and produced by Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Brad Winderbaum, Kat Coiro and Jessica Gao. (UNI)
