Bhaag Milka Bhaag

Couldn't stop myself from posting this!

This is one such movie which touched me deeply and left me speechless by the end of 3 hours and 7 minutes.
Shah Rukh Khan can catch trains and catch a few Girls in the meanwhile! Hrithik can jump over as many buildings as he wants, Salman can rip all his t-shirts!!! What Farhan Akthar has brought to this movie is simply extraordinary  He surpasses most of the actors of his league!  A complete natural, his acting prowess cannot be paralleled! Farhan has done complete justice in enacting the living legend Milka, while he himself is a legend in the making! Rakesh Omprakash Mehra is a new age director and the duo together has brought the character alive.

The story traces back to the childhood trauma faced by a simple boy from Punjab (in Pakistan) who lost his family during partition and struggled to get 2 meals a day. In spite of all his struggles, mental traumas he grew up to be a legendary athlete/sprinter India has ever seen! The movie showcases his struggles from being a street cheat to an army jawaan to a celebrated athlete! One scene from the movie which requires a special mention is the practice session with the skipping rope, one can witness all the hard work put into building this character! It’s a WOWWW!

Go! Go watch his movie over this weekend!! (No... I have not been paid to write this review! Just wanted you all to benefit the same pleasure I did after watching this movie! :-))
Indian cinema is definitely changing and come a long long way...
