The Incredible Life of Mary Kom : The Queen of Boxing

M.C. Mary Kom grew up in a little village in Manipur. Her parents worked hard at a variety of jobs to give their children the best education possible. Mary, too, pitched in to help them from the time she was very young. When it was clear to everyone that she was an exceptional sportsperson, Mary’s parents sent her to the city to get professional training. In Imphal, she chose to train in boxing—a sport that made use of her grit, strength and agility, and appealed to the tough spirit within her.
