Defying the Bullet The Murlikant Petkar Story (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9788199043220)

When Pakistani bullets ripped through his body, 21-year-old Murlikant Petkar's military career ended in blood and dust. But destiny had other plans. What happens when a young soldier faces a choice: surrender to despair or dive into the impossible? The answer lies in the waters of Heidelberg, Germany, 1972, where Petkar touched the wall first, breaking a world record and claiming India's first Paralympic gold. This is not just a sports story; it's a testament to what the human spirit can achieve when everything is stripped away except one's will. A story so extraordinary, it inspired the Bollywood blockbuster "Chandu Champion"! Are you ready to meet India's first Paralympic champion-a man who turned wounds into wings? Dive in - the race begins on page one.
