Dr.Som, a qualified general physician, wields the stethoscope and dumb-bells with equal ease. People call him the desi version of Arnold. He has bagged himself with n number of bodybuilding entitles, to name a few- "Mr.Delhi" in the year 1991, "Strongest Man Of India" for three consecutive years 1991-2001. According to him India was falling short of entitles for him to bag with, so he decided to compete worldwide. He has victory podiums across the globe and has his name written in the golden list of world's renowned bodybuilders. The man competes with none other than himself and so has he consecutively broken his own records every year from 1997-2001. Dr.Som has no regrets, “except that power lifting is not an Olympic sport.’’ He doesn’t need any more medals to prove that he is a heavyweight champion in his chosen sport. However,Olympic glory would certainly give his spirit a powerful lift! For him, exercise is the best form of meditation. For me, he is a “Karamyogi” like Swami Vivekananda, who once said, “I recommend youngsters football instead of Gita.” As health is the best way to tune your mind towards meditation and “Moksha.” Thus he is a great Social Worker too...
