Off The Track Ft. Hima Das | EP 03 | WHAT IF with Twarita

The Untold Story of India’s Dhing Express Hima Das, also known as the “Dhing Express,” rose from the small village of Dhing in Assam to become one of India’s most celebrated track and field athletes. In 2018, she made history by becoming the first Indian track athlete to win a gold medal at the IAAF World U20 Championships, winning the women’s 400m title. But behind the medals, records, headlines, and the athlete India came to know is a much deeper story. From playing football and training on muddy fields in Assam to representing India on the international stage, Hima’s journey is a story of ambition, resilience, sacrifice, and an unshakeable belief in oneself.
