Hylian Shield Appears As Prize For A Wrestling Tournament In Indian TV Show

Earlier this week, we told you about a Chinese TV channel illegally using The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s intro theme for a segment of their special program.

Today, it looks like a television program in India has gone one step further. NintendoSoup reader Nitin Rao informed us that the Hylian Shield appeared in a Marathi serial called “Tujhyat Jeev Rangla”.

What was the Hylian Shield doing in the drama? It was a prize for the champion for the World Wrestler’s League:

Unbelievable.

It’s weird to see the Hylian Shield appear as a trophy for a wrestling tournament. Nevertheless, as Nintendo rarely grants companies the permission to use their intellectual property for broadcast, this is very likely another case of unauthorized use of Nintendo IP.
