A movie that touches your soul.

Rating: 10/10 (6 October 2013)

A very inspiring and positive movie that touches your soul. The movie begins with the 1960 Rome Olympic 400m Race in which Milkha Singh was poised to win. Milkha gains the lead in the race and looks to win the first ever track Olympics gold for India. But as he approaches the second corner of the track, he hears certain set of words from his coach, and these words seem not to be just words for him - 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag'.
As you watch the rest of the movie you discover what was in those words that they haunted Milkha. The movie also showcases the spirit and dedication of this man and how he overcame his fears. The movie has an excellent background score that completely compliments the emotional connect the director of the movie expects the audience to have with the pain and suffering this great man.
The story of the Flying Sikh would have had acted as a catalyst that it further motivated Farhan to display exceptional dedication and perseverance for the role.
