Summary:

JHANSI: Thirty seven years after the death of soldier-turned-international athlete-turned-rebel Paan Singh Tomar , his family is still leading a life in obscurity out of the fear of the old family feud due to which Paan Singh had turned into a ' baghi' (rebel). Paan Singh was a soldier in Army where his talent for running was discovered. Indra has been living with son Sohrab, who retired from Army, his wife Sharda and their four children in Babina for past 28 years. We still fear for our lives and that is why we don't go to Morena where we still have our land though now it is in papers only," said Sharda.The family feud had led to killing of Paan Singh's elder brother Matadin. Not wanting any more tragedies , the family prefers to lead a life of isolation..
