Dalip
Singh was born in the village of Dhirana in the state of Himachal Pradesh
in India, the third of eight children in the Rana family. He worked as a
roadside stone breaker in order to earn bread for his family. In 1993, Singh
was working in the Himalaya hills when his life's circumstances began to
change. By this time he had tried his hand at many sports. He excelled in
all of them, but showed exceptional talent in
bodybuilding.
The Director General of the Punjab Police Department took notice of Dalip
and helped him join the police force. The change in employment allowed Singh
to further his body building training and he subsequently won titles of
Mr. India from 1997 through 1998.
He married Harminder Kaur on February
27, 2002. Dalip Singh's goal in life is to support his family and aid the
entire village that is his home. He is an active mentor to young people
in Punjab, encouraging them to stay away from drugs and urging them to find
discipline, health and success by taking up sports. In 2006 Singh was suspended
from the Punjab Police Department as a result of his absence and time spent
working with WWE, but was reinstated within hours
