The Great Khali has been battling ongoing problems in his knees and has been struggling to get around recently. Some of his colleagues believe that he needs surgery on both knees. The Great Khali previously underwent knee surgeries back in late 2006, which put him out of action for about three months. The Great Khali is scheduled to make a trip back home to India, so it could not have come at a better time.

The Great Khali, is coming back to India by the end of this month. After almost two years of his busy wrestling life, he will be in his home. From roadside labourer to wrestling champion, Dalip Singh Rana (the real name of Khali) has changed his world within this time. When he took long leave from Punjab police for fighting in WWE, he was a normal man. Now he has become a super hero. He has many fans in India and they love him.

We should know that the great Khali has not only been a WWE world heavyweight champion, but also a Hollywood actor. He has acted in ’The longest yard’.
According to his brother, the great Khali is coming for at least one month. He will spend this time with his family members and villagers in Himachal Pradesh. When he comes back, he will find a newly made home instead of his old home.
Villagers of his native place and his Indian fans are waiting for his arrival. Every one wants to witness the tallest wrestler of WWE after his great success in wrestling. People are curious to know about him and his lifestyle. Villagers are ready to welcome their own village lad.
In this year, Khali got everything...name, fame and money. After his success, will he live with the villagers as he lived? Will he continue his Punjab police job? Khali can give answers to these questions only after his return to India, so just wait till Khali comes.
People also want to know whether the great Khali would act in an Indian film also, as he acted in a Hollywood flick.
