📖 About the Book

Bangalir Bahubal takes a deep dive into the forgotten history of Bengali valor and strength. The book aims to dispel the myth that modern-day Bengalis are weak or lacking in power. By delving into the past, it reveals how the Bengali people were historically strong, skilled, and fearless.

Each chapter of the book covers a different aspect of Bengali strength, showcasing bravery, valor, and fighting prowess. The book covers eight specific areas where Bengalis excelled in their physical abilities and martial arts. Some of these include:

• Hunting: The Bengali expertise in tracking, hunting, and using traditional techniques for survival

• Wrestling (Kusti): The strong tradition of wrestling in Bengali culture and the famous wrestlers who contributed to this legacy

• Paloan (Pehlwani): The Bengali wrestlers' prowess in traditional Indian wrestling

• Lathi Yudda (Stick Fighting): The art of lathi or stick fighting, a traditional form of martial arts

• Other aspects of strength and resilience: Highlighting the various ways in which the Bengali people demonstrated their bravery in battle and physical contests

By looking back into history, Bangalir Bahubal asserts that the modern perception of the Bengali as weak is far from true. Instead, it highlights the powerful and skilled nature of the Bengali people through history, encouraging pride and respect for this forgotten legacy.

Illustrated by Subrata Roy, the artwork brings the ancient traditions and strength of the Bengali people to life, making the book visually compelling and engaging.
