O Lord! May l die on my feet,

Abdul Khaliq was Pakistan's pride.

The fastest runner in Asia.

Milkha couldn't

wait to see him run.

The next day he was

to run against him.

l'm grateful to

my countrymen and to Coach Javed.

Salaam!

- Thanks.

Javed sir.

Your boy ran well.

Congratulations.

- Thank you.

Bravo! You ruled the field.

Thank you, sir.

This is Milkha Singh.

lndia's 400m champion athlete.

Hello, sir.

You're competing in the 200m race.

All the best.

To you too.

Watch out.

Watch out, Khaliq.

l hear you ran

away from Pakistan...

... have been running

ever since, huh?

Now you need to show

your magic in 200m as well.

Come.

We've seen dozens like Milkha.

We have two choices...

... leave our village

and go to the new lndia.

Or change our religion as they ask.

We shall not eat cow's meat!

They can behead us, but we

will never change our religion!

Prepare to fight then.

When Guru Govind Singh

left Anantpur Sahib...

... and reached Garhwal fort...

... he had only 40 Sikhs with him.

While the enemy were a million!

Guruji dressed

his sons in armour...

...and sent them to battle.

His forty men fought hard.

They fought a mighty army.

How will we fight?

They have weapons, horses...

And us?

What do we have?

Enough of bravado!

Thousands are leaving for lndia...

... we should go too.

A sparrow will challenge an eagle,

A lamb will fight a lion,

One man will fight a million.

Guru Govind Singh, bless us!

A sparrow will challenge an eagle,

A lamb will fight a lion,

One man will fight a million.

Guru Govind Singh, bless us!

Come on.

Milkha. Are you alright, son?

Jai Hind sir.

Today, you won't

salute us, we salute you.

The whole unit salutes you.

lndia salutes you.

Proud.

Milkha, you are an officer now.

No.

All because of the pat on my back

and a kick on my butt from you sir.

Stay well, my son.

l wish you a thousand joys.

You have made me happy.

Congratulations to his friends!

Many many congratulation

for Milkhas winning.

Let's celebrate!

"Bite through the electric fire"

"Chew the metal's

vibrating current"

"Set aflame your every pore"

"Without burning yourself

there's no glow"

"The flames are burning Milkha"

"Run Milkha"

Excuse me.

Can l have a photograph please?

Of course.

Thank you.

Son, you have made us proud.

Now make lndia's flag

flutter high at the Rome Olympics.

The hopes of all lndia ride on you.

l will run like

my life depends on it.

Wonderful.

Son, what can we do for you?

Panditji, if l win, can you

declare a national holiday?

Of course.

A call from Pakistan.

Gentlemen. Excuse me, please.

- Yes.

Ladies and Gentlemen.

An important announcement...

... what a coincidence that

while you are all here and...

... Pakistan's President,

Field Marshal Ayub Khan has called.

He has accepted my proposal

of the lndo-Pak friendship games.

lt's an important step

toward friendship...

... between our two nations.

l would like...

... Milkha Singh to

lead our contingent...

... to Pakistan.

All eyes were on Milkha.

But there was a storm

brewing in Milkha's head.

Milkha, run!

Run!

Why are you standing here?

Son. Son.

Listen to me...
