Fantastic!

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

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.

BHAAG MILKHA BHAAG is a biopic directed by Rakyesh Omprakash Mehra, starring Farhan Akthar and Sonam KapoorBased on the real life story of an awesome athlete "The Flying Sikh" Milkha Singh and his role played very well by Farhan Akhtar the multi talented person has put his heart and sole in the movie. Farhan Akhtar's tough physical training for this role pays great dividends on screen. Overall, 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.

In a brunch of regular commercial movies, it's a relief to watch biopics like "Bhaag Milkha Bhag." Such movies tend to educate viewers about the forgotten heroes. Such is Milkha Singh, who gave fame to his country as an athlete. The film chronicles the hardship of Milkha Singh to rise to fame from the dark childhood to hardships in the training. Though remarkable in its content and the numerous awards the film bagged last year, the film somehow lacks a coherent pacing and becomes overlong. The performance of Farhan Akhtar as Milkha Singh is remarkable. Sonam Kapoor's role gets wasted. Music is pretty nice though the songs feel a bit numerous in the film. Overall, the film is nice and inspirational as a sincere biopic on an athlete with a remarkable central character; but it somewhat lacks a coherent pacing to grip you. On the matter, "Mary Kom" is more preferable.Rating: 2 stars out of 4

To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist that is all - Oscar WildeMilkha Singh lives and he truly lived against all the odds. Salute. Please, go watch this film and then judge it.I always believe that sportsmen and artists are the ones, who truly live. They have a purpose to do something. All others, merely exist. Now existence means, since we are born, and have to do something we just exist till death and then die someday and nobody except the family and friends remember us. While sportsmen and artists, live even after death and that's the kind of life, we must aspire for. Now, this film raised some very pertinent questions, do we Indians, love sport? When was the last film based on a true sports person and how many are made? Do we know sportsmen apart from the cricketers, who take part in Olympics? How many who are reading this, know Milkha Singh?India is in a sorry state in Sports and except few folks, no one is passionate or serious about sports in our country. A country of 120 Crores does not have 120 medals from last 120 years. Such is the state of the nation in sport, just very sad. OK, now coming to the movie. I just loved it, and it was flawless for me. Yes, there are evident flaws, but all were surpassed by supreme performance of one man, Farhan Akhtar and his commitment to the role shall win him sublime acclaim. Though all other performances were good. Divya Dutta excelled as Milkha's sister and brought tears to my eyes. The cinematography was superb, the color toning used, the way the races were shot, wow it was just exemplary for me. The songs, so apt to situations, I would have still been happy with couple of songs less, but it's okay. The editing would have been better considering this movie is 3 hours but never did I feel all along that this was so very long. In fact I cherished every moment of it. I cherished it because of the honesty of purpose, it's one of the most purposeful true story that has come out in a long time in our country. Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra and Prasoon Joshi have done an exemplary job in executing a story that's nothing short of an epic. That take away is this this "Hard Work, Will Power and Dedication, for a man with these qualities, sky is the limit' It's a 5/5 for this, nothing less. I just loved it. Mr Farhan Akhtar, I loved you as director, then as an actor, then as a singer and then as a TV host too. Now, I love you as Milkha. You are a prime example of a man who knows his strengths and his limitations. But when stop doing the stupid ads of Intex and Tata Motors, you will be fine. You are the man who gave us "Lakshya" and Dil Chahta Hai" just don't desecrate by becoming less. I still see you as a sanctified being.
