In today’s fitness world, where sponsorships, trainers, and nutritionists often pave the way for success, it’s rare to come across a story of raw determination and grit. Eight years ago, Karmjeeth Singh Soni embarked on his journey with none of these privileges. He had no godfather in the industry, no trainer to guide him, no sponsorship deals, and no one to plan his nutrition. He was completely self-reliant, learning from scratch, pushing his limits, and carving his path in the fiercely competitive fitness landscape.
For four long years, Karmjeeth faced rejection after rejection from various competition boards. Doubts from officials and lack of recognition clouded his efforts, forcing him to plead for opportunities. Yet, his resilience was unwavering. His breakthrough finally came when Jaganathan, the head of the Southern India Federation, granted him a chance. This pivotal moment opened doors that had been tightly shut.
Since then, his rise has been remarkable. He claimed the Mr. South India title in both 2022 and 2023, followed by a win at Mr. India 2023. His most notable achievement came when he represented India at the VIVA Classic, bringing home a bronze medal on an international stage.
Now, with his sights set on Mr. Asia and the upcoming Mr. World 2026, Karmjeeth Singh Soni stands as a testament to perseverance. His journey is a reminder that with hard work, passion, and resilience, even the toughest obstacles can be overcome, and success is within reach for those willing to fight for it.
