[edit] crossface

Khali busted out a crossface last night, could we please add it to his 'moves' section? Or should we wait for him to do it again? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Herotastic (talk • contribs) 00:46, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Nah, using a move once does make it signature. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 03:09, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Khali still on Punjab police pay rolls 30 Mar 2008, 0144 hrs IST,Rohit Mullick,TNN

HANDIGARH: Dalip Singh Rana was always big. And almost always very hungry.

For food he would do anything. Back home in his Himachal village of Sirmour, he did odd jobs to fill his great appetite - as night watchman, construction labourer, waiter at road-side dhabas - but still craved for things to eat.

That was before the 7 feet 3 inch-tall Rana metamorphosed into a 200-kg muscled monster the world now knows as The Great Khali, one of the WWE's most compelling fighters and global icon for battle-and-blood lusting teenagers and youth across continents.

But fame, money, roles in Hollywood movies like the Adam Sandler-starrer The Longest Yard and forthcoming Get Smart with Bill Murray - and food, of course - wouldn't have come Khali's way had not Punjab Police recruited him sometime in 1994, spotted strolling around Shimla's Mall with a group of students who would show him off to their girlfriends after paying the man a small fee.

The Punjab Police, it seems, is still doing Khali a good turn. He's a cop in their records, ever since former Punjab DGP MS Bhullar got him a job, and is on "leave without pay".

What's more, to help save his job, he's also "sick and indisposed" in official records.

The SI wrestler has now been on leave for the last three years. Not that anybody cares, really. A senior police officer, smiling with pride spoke of how his colleague is on medical leave "but is thrashing foreign opponents with his Indian fist."

ADGP Rajan Gupta of PAP, where Khali is "posted" in Jalandhar, said, "I don't think there is anything wrong in extending his leave. He is an asset to the department and an exception can always be made." The love for Khali runs across departments. ADGP (law and order) Chander Shekhar said, "He has become a brand and in my opinion his name should instead be suggested for a Padma Shree or any other national award."

His family, some of whom are now in the police, too are backing him. "I don't think my brother has done anything wrong in asking for leave," said Mangat Singh Rana, Khali's younger sibling. "Don't ask us about his leave. We just want to enjoy the next match in Atlanta on March 30. He'll beat up everybody again." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aprchi (talk • contribs) 09:09, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
