Premiering for the first time in India, I am Ali gives an intimate and heart-warming look at the man behind the legend - as we've never seen him before. Told through exclusive, unprecedented access to Ali's personal archive of 'audio journals' combined with touching interviews and testimonials from his family and friends, including legends of the boxing community such as Mike Tyson, George Foreman and Gene Kilroy.

Prior to Muhammad Ali, boxers were seen, not heard. As Clare Lewin shows, Ali had the repartee of a comedian. He was effortlessly witty and perceptive. Lewins and her team have researched their documentary diligently. They have tracked down some wonderful stills and archive footage, and interviewed many people very close to Ali. They use music inventively and strike a brisk tempo, cutting between the talking head interviews, old footage and audio recordings.

‘I Am Ali’ reminds us of his wisecracking humor, his courage, and that mix of grace and intelligence that ultimately won over almost everyone with whom he came into contact. Muhammad Ali transcends his sport and remains, indisputably, the greatest personality in boxing history Journey with the legendary Muhammad Ali as he shares his life with us in the courageous story of ‘I Am Ali’ on Star Movies Select HD on Saturday, January 9 at 9pm
