Bollywood had always been inspired from real life and real people. Here’s yet another film which will be based on a personality who made India proud.
After giving films like ‘Rang De Basanti’ and ‘Delhi 6’, director Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra is gearing up to give another remarkable venture. Titled ‘Bhaag Milkha Bhaag’, the filmmaker will be bringing up a biopic next which is based on the renowned sportsman Milkha Singh.
The script will be penned by Prasoon Joshi. According to sources, the film will cover the story of Milkha Singh’s life and his journey across several continents. While the filmmaker and the sports icon are hush-hush over the project, sources found out that the film will start its shoot next year.
Meanwhile Mehra is seriously on the film’s ground work and putting things together. Calling Milkha’s story extremely inspiring, the director said, “He went from a boy who was running to save his life, to an athlete who brought glory and fame for the country. We have spoken to him and he has been extremely helpful with the research and has shared details of his personal life.”
Milkha Singh, or 'The Flying Sikh' as he is popularly called, is one of the greatest Indian athletes and has been felicitated with a Padma Shri.
