The correct answer is A. Dangal.

Dangal is a 2016 Indian Hindi-language biographical sports drama film directed by Nitesh Tiwari and produced by Aamir Khan, Kiran Rao, Siddharth Roy Kapur, and Reliance Entertainment. The film stars Khan as Mahavir Singh Phogat, a former wrestler who trains his daughters Geeta Phogat and Babita Kumari to become world-class wrestlers, despite the social taboos surrounding women wrestling in India.

The film was released on 23 December 2016 and was a critical and commercial success, grossing over ₹2,000 crore worldwide. It was the highest-grossing Indian film of 2016 and the third highest-grossing Indian film of all time. The film was also nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 89th Academy Awards.

The film is based on the real-life story of Mahavir Singh Phogat, a former wrestler who trained his daughters Geeta Phogat and Babita Kumari to become world-class wrestlers. Geeta Phogat became the first Indian woman to win a gold medal at the Commonwealth Games in 2010. Babita Kumari won a silver medal at the 2012 Summer Olympics.

The film was praised for its performances, direction, and screenplay. Khan’s performance as Mahavir Singh Phogat was particularly praised. The film was also praised for its portrayal of the struggles faced by women in India.

The film was not without its critics, however. Some critics felt that the film was too long and that it did not adequately explore the complexities of the Phogat family’s story. Others felt that the film was too sentimental and that it did not offer a realistic portrayal of the challenges faced by women in India.

Despite its critics, Dangal is a powerful and moving film that tells the story of an extraordinary family. It is a film that will stay with you long after you have seen it.
