The story solely revolves around the hardship and horrors of 'Milkha Sing' the Flying Sikh. The actor farahan Akhter has put his heart and soul in this great movie. The movie is about a athlete who faces lots of problem in his life. The women in milkha Singh life play a very important role;His sister his love or his crush. In a Brief role,Sonam prettily breezes through. Pavan and Divya are outstanding.Every one who is associated with the film has done a great job;Director to actor. The Music heightens the Drama. in-spite the movie is long but you never feel board. Mehra is brilliant at his craft;he infuses realism int drama,and explores characters so deeply and sensitively through tragedy and triumph, that it sparks an emotional deluge.Over all Bhaag Milkha Bhaag is a award winning Movie. I will give 7 out of 10.

I say Bhaag Milkha Bhaag is one of most underrated films out there. Don't worry if you're not a fan of sports films, it's given a perfect example of what turns your big dream into reality. Nothing comes by easy. To overcome all the obstacles including people's doubts ("crab theory"), fears, or anything that distracts you from pursing your big dream. It's all up to you and yourself, that's it. Milkha Singh didn't have a happy childhood. He already went into rock bottom right after he came out of his mommy's tummy. He witnessed all the hatreds toward his family and peers. Right there, he felt like he shouldn't be existed in this world. At one point, his father told him to run, run, run away from Pakistan and don't look back right a minute before it's turned into a bloodbath. It's the first time he actually felt that he deserved to live. To live for one of fewest people who literally love him. He ran away with his bloody and deadly feet. As Milkha still obeyed his lovely father's word by not looking back, he grew up happily in India. He had a habit of pushing his physical beyond his limitation to keep him looking away from his past, as in order to obey his father's word. He joined military to help him going on from the past by turning himself into like a robot and listening to the orders, but then he realized that pushing himself physically during the day wasn't enough. He sneaked and ran at nighttime. At one moment when he's busted, he wasn't able to explain to his chiefs why he chose to continue working out at nighttime. He had a habit of running for long time to the point where he lost his conscious of his intention to run. From there, he's assigned to run everyday during the daytime. As he continued to work beyond his physical ability, he was desperate to find a lover to tone him down. He thought that it would be his medicine. At the time of 400m racing, he blew away his easy victory because he was self-doubted. (I'm talking about the scene in the beginning where he looked back and lost his leading in the race. That's fiction and I think it portrayed to give a clear message to the audience why he blew it away.) In fact, it's all about his uncertainty about his purpose to run. He ran to avoid his dreadful past, but in people's perspective, he had potential to be one of the greatest runners. Thankfully, Milkha had a wonderful mentor, Gurudev, who helped him to recognize his potential to become one of the greatest runners. Grooved wasn't a wonderful mentor only because of how he trained Milkha. He guided Milkha slowly and let him to analyze himself whether he wants to be a great runner or not. He allowed Milkha to have his own journey with a female right before race day. When Milkha assured to be a runner, Gurudev determined him to be the one immediately.Unconsciously, Milkha still worked beyond his physical limitation to distract him from his past. Only the difference was he replaced Gurudev as his lover. Someone who loved him and believed in him. That's all he really needed. Milkha wasn't happy when he heard that he had to race in Pakistan. One more reason to say Gurudev as a tremendous mentor. He convinced Milkha to come and wander lost in Pakistan. He allowed Milkha to explore there to decide whether he wants to win the race or not. In the end, of course, he won the race. As he continued to run after the finish line, he saw himself as a little boy running right next to him smiling at him. It's a moment when he realized that he literally overcame his fear with his hardworking, willpower, and dedication. Cherry on top of Milkha ice cream, Indian Prime Minister declared a national holiday after his victory in Pakistan.This story INSPIRED me!

Bhaag Milkha Bhaag- 2013 Director: Rakeysh Omprakash MehraCinematography was just amazing.Direction was just perfect and the casting was sensibly done. Bhaag Milkha Bhaag is an award-winning film. It shows us the life of Milkha Singh through his very own eyes and deserves a standing ovation for its performances, writing and direction. Talking about Farhan Akhtar, he is one of the most superb actors of Indian Cinema. No one could ever play this role of young, energetic, ambitious Milkha Singh the way Farhan did. Claps for him. The songs of the movie were so catchy that despite of three long hours no one would want to leave their seats and miss a scene.Truly Inspiring.

One of the best sports based films ever made. In fact, this film is not only about guts and glory, but dwells into topics much deeper than that. ROPM delivers yet another masterpiece. The duration of the movie is big let-down, and the director could have cut down on those unnecessary songs, which slow down the pace of the movie. The entire movie is capped off by a brilliant ending. Farhan was absolutely brilliant and flawless in the movie, thus adding yet another feather to his already highly decorated cap. All the other actors too have played their parts. On the whole, this movie was not only an entertainer but also keeps you hooked to it for a good three hours. And rarely has a Bollywood movie been this good. Truly an inspiring movie... Hats off to the entire team for creating such a masterpiece !!!!
