But unfortunately, when you utter the word sports, it generally refers to cricket alone, which is almost a religion in this part of the world. While efforts have been made to support and promote other forms of the sporting events but almost always it all boils down to cricket and the various forms in which it is played. The IPL, the CCI, the test matches, one-day internationals, and the bandwidth simply widens!

Fighting on Ice is not an ordinary feature documentary - it's hard-hitting and real - revealing the true fight between passion and struggle.
