Farhan Akhtar hopes for Pakistan release for Bhaag Milkha Bhaag

With the day coming closer for the release of Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, the leading hero Farhan Akhtar reveals that he has hopes that the producer of his film plans to release it in Pakistan too.

While talking to the Gulf News the 39-year-old actor revealed that usually those films are not released in Pakistan which portray their society in a bad angle or with unnecessary defamation of the country. But as per Farhan’s assertions, the Milkha Singh biopic is totally based on facts, which can neither be disputed nor can be made sensational.

A special screening of Bhaag Milkha Bhaag will also take place for the army personnel in Chandigarh cantonment today. A source disclosed, "This being the hometown of Milkha Singh, they were keen to host a screening of the film in Chandigarh. Also, since Milkha has an army background, the producers wanted this city and the army establishment here to be a platform where Milkha can express gratitude to the defence fraternity for his success as an athlete." The entire star cast of the film, Farhan Akhtar, Sonam Kapoor, Divya Dutta, Yograj Singh, director Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra and scriptwriter Prasoon Joshi, will be present at the event.
