Mallakhamb as the name suggests is a pole used by wrestlers for practicing their skills in the game KUSTI. But now a days the trend has changed and it has got a special identity. Mallakhamb needs concentration, speed and flexibility. It is the only game which is played against gravity. Mallakhamb is a traditional Indian sport in which a gymnast performs poses and feats while hanging from a vertical wooden pole or rope. Mallakhamb also refers to the pole used in the sport. The name of the performer is Rajesh Amrale who appeared in India\'s Got Talent, a show that has eminent judges trio of Shekhar Kapoor, Sonali Bendre and Kirron Kher. The word \"Mallakhamb\" is composed of Malla, which denotes a gymnast or a man of strength, and khamb, which is a pole. Mallakhamb, therefore, can be translated in English as pole gymnastics.
