Still, the seed has been planted, and Singh has resolved that he, too, shall someday call such a blazer his own.
Even then, Singh is still something of a village bumpkin surrounded by more sophisticated city types, and Akhtar is especially good at playing this wide-eyed naif, who, in one spectacularly misjudged move, “borrows” the embroidered national team blazer of a visiting track star, who in turn gives Singh a brutal lashing. (The title, which translates as “Run Milkha Run,” are the final words spoken to the 12-year-old by his father, well played by veteran Anglo-Pakistani thesp Art Malik in his Bollywood debut.) Circumscribing all of this is a larger framing story in which Singh’s two longtime coaches (Pavan Malhotra and Yograj Singh) travel across India by train to convince the dejected Singh, brought low by his failure in Rome, to represent India in the Commonwealth Games.Īlong the way, “Bhaag Milkha Bhaag” devotes extended episodes to Singh’s post-Partition life in a Delhi refugee camp, where he is reunited with his devoted elder sister, Isri (the superb Divya Dutta), and to his years as an army cadet, where he first discovers his gift for speed. If the cinematic perspective is to be considered then the movie has failed to keep the expectations in some places but it is worth watching and it is given the rating 3.5 out of 5.Pic’s fragmented structure continues to move back and forth in time, as events in Singh’s present trigger memories of the past, particularly the young Milkha (played by Jabtej Singh) witnessing his parents’ slaughter during violent Partition rioting. The singers are Shankar Mahadeva, Siddharth Mahadevan, Loy Mendosa, Sukhvinder Singh, Shreya Ghosal, Javed Bashir, Divya Kumar and Arif Lohar. The cinematography of the movie done by Binod Pradhan is amazing and Sankar-Ehsaan-Loy’s music is not extraordinary but pleasing. Sonam Kapoor has also done what she was supposed to do to the character. Farhan Akhtar’s acting is worth watching as he has gone deep into the character and has done complete justice to the character. The movie is longer than an average movie made in Bollywood and critics feel that some parts of childhood days, romance tracks and songs and dance could been trimmed to make it a neat and concrete movie on the life of iconic athlete of India, Milkha Singh. Divya Dutt is just perfect to play the role of Milkha Singh’s sister. The role of Milkha’s coach, who was military personal, is played by Pawan Malhotra and his mentor’s role is played by Yograj Singh, father of famous Indian Cricketer, Yuvraj Singh.
Milkha hard work brings him success but his deep wounds never got healed and it starts bleeding again when he got an invitation to peace games between the two countries-India and Pakistan. His bondage with his sister Isri Kaur is also very well shown in the movie. The second track is about his personal life where his interactions with his teenage infatuation.

The movie runs into two parallel tracks, one that is about Milka’s professional life where he joins Indian army and gets motivated to run for the country.
