Reviews: This summer before the starting of our academic session i had seen one of the mast erpiece of all time ever made by the bollywood world "Bhaag Milkha Bhaag".I had known the t itle of the movie since it released but never had the chance to watch, but then i saw the n umber of awards that it had got during IIFA 2014. I got surprised, since every now and then the title song of the movie gets played because every award had been stolen by this movie only.

This movie gets its inspiration from a script written by based on the life of Flying Sikh '', an Indian Athlete who was a national champion, runner and an Olympian.

The movie get started with the 1960 summer olympic in , where a coach keeps on saying "Bhaag Milkha Bhaag". Then the movie ships back and forth in time. It goes to the mi lkha's childhood and his traumatic and confused life. Childhood days of 'Milkha' always hau nted him its because of the during british india in 1947 that leads to t he relegious riots and chaos, which leads to his parents death. Milkha met his sister in a refugee camp later and started stealing with his newly made friends. Soon he joined the cam p, his running skills got noticed by the hawaldar there and he convinced him for a race for the milk and bread, and he won. And this became the starting point of World known Milkha S ingh.

Milkha Singh then won several races and became the top most athelete of the nation. Inspite of being injured he breaks the national record. Later he participated in several i nternational competition and hoisted the flag of india there too. Sometimes he got distract ed by the materialistic world. The Then prime minsiter Jawahar Lal Nehru confronted him to represent india in a friendly sports meet between india and . There he went to his village and it reminded him of his parents death and the last words by his father "Bhaag Mi lkha Bhaag".

In the field, initially the pakistan fovourite was leading but then Milkha gets the lead eventually overtaking opponents one by one and finally won the race. Impressed by his efforts, the president of pakistan gave him the name of "The Flying Sikh", and declared on e day national holiday on his name.

Farhan Khan has done a great job in the movie making. He has played the character o f mikha singh with full honesty and with great perfection. He also worked hard to achieve a n athlete physique. But sometimes i do feel a bit of his own creation there, in that respec t i will go with THE PAAN SINGH TOMAR for the acting of irrfan khan was superb, but overall the movie BHAAG MILKHA BHAAG was best scripted and attracted lot of people.

Overall this movie is worth watching, its a very engrossing and inspirational movie and tribute to what great heights a man can reach with determination and a fierce inner de sire to excel. There is nothing much I can really tell you except to go and see this movie. It would make a great watch for kids and youth as well.
