The Story Of This Bollywood Stuntwoman’s Life Will Leave You Astonished

Watching or reading about bravery everyday is rare! Have a look at this story of Geeta Tandon, one of the most successful stuntwomen in Bollywood. You will be in complete aww!  Married at the age of fifteen, Geeta’s life at her in-law’s place was hell. A mother-in-law who hated her, a drunk abuser (husband) who raped and tortured her on a daily basis, and a whole lot of mute spectators. But Geeta fought on. She fought for herself and her children. For a poor and young single woman, one of the few means of employment available to her was prostitution. But years of abuse made her never take that road. Instead she cooked and cleaned until one fine day, she got to know about a vacancy for a stuntwoman’s job. She took it up without any training. She got injured but she did not give up. Today, after being in the industry for years, she is very successful and aspires to be India’s first female action director. Geeta’s story is one that not only makes you shudder at parts, but also makes you realize that if you don’t give up and if you don’t agree to settle for less, you will always find a way to get what you want. Her story inspires us and we hope it inspires you. Watch the full video here:
