Mohit Grewal Biography

Indian wrestler Mohit Grewal, born in 1999 in Bamla, Bhiwani, Haryana, is a national-level competitor who has won medals at World School, U-23 and senior U

Early life and background

Mohit Grewal was born in 1999 in the village of Bamla in the Bhiwani district of Haryana. Raised in a family with a strong wrestling lineage, he is described as a third-generation wrestler: relatives including an uncle who earned national and international recognition and other family members who competed at national levels or worked as coaches. His father, Jagbir Grewal, served in the Haryana Police.

Mohit attended Chaudhary Bansi Lal University, where he graduated from the Department of Physical and Sports. During his school years he tried several sports: he competed in swimming at national-level school events and practiced judo, winning medals in junior national judo championships. Despite success in multiple disciplines, wrestling remained his primary focus from an early age.

Career

Mohit began formal wrestling training in 2013 at local akharas and is associated with Virender National Academy in Haryana. His first notable international result came in 2016 when he won a gold medal at the World School Championship in Turkey, an early marker of his potential on the global stage.

At junior level he continued to collect results, earning a bronze medal at the 2018 Junior Asian Championships. A knee injury then interrupted his progress: he suffered patellar tendinitis and significant ligament damage that kept him out of competition during 2019 and 2020. He has spoken about the physical and mental challenges during that recovery period.

Mohit returned to form in 2021. He won gold at the U-23 National Championships and reached the bronze medal play-off at the U-23 World Championships. In the same year he advanced to the final of the Senior National Championships and finished with a silver medal.

In June 2022 he stepped onto the senior international circuit at a tournament in Almaty, Kazakhstan. There he beat a Turkish opponent, Salim Ercan, before losing in the semi-finals to Tokyo Olympian Yusup Batirmurzaev. Mohit fought back to claim the bronze medal by defeating Sardorbek Kholmatov of Uzbekistan.

Mohit has also taken part in the process for selection to the Birmingham Commonwealth Games in 2022. Over the years he has collected medals at national events such as the All India Inter-University Championships and Khelo India, building a profile as one of the promising Indian wrestlers in his weight category.

Public profile

Standing at a competing weight of about 125 kg (approximately 275 lbs), Mohit is noted for his physical presence on the mat. He has black hair and black eyes. Off the mat he is active on social media and shares training footage and personal photos, including pictures of his pet dog. He is unmarried.

Family and personal details

Mohit comes from a family deeply involved in wrestling and public service. His father worked with the Haryana Police. Several uncles have been involved in wrestling at national and international levels or in coaching roles. The family background has been an important influence on his decision to pursue the sport professionally.

Controversy

In 2022 a disputed result in a Commonwealth Games selection trial led to an altercation with another wrestler, Satender Malik, after a referee's decision. That incident generated media attention after video of the confrontation circulated publicly. Mohit later focused on competition results, saying subsequent medals helped shift attention back to his sporting achievements.

Latest updates

As of 2022 Mohit had reclaimed momentum by winning bronze in Almaty and continuing to compete at senior internationals. He remains connected to national training structures and continues to represent India at international tournaments when selected.
