Otherwise, everybody rise for this cinema of massive potential.BOTTOM LINE: A very good entertainer with mentoring prowess. Only, the running time of 190 minutes COULD'VE. Humor touches the script at times, as well.Overall, an entertaining biography which is well-written and well- executed. I was blown away by Akhtar's bod and his expressions. That is the power of Rakeysh O Mehra and his crew. Fresh writing, inventive editing & below-average SFX/CGI makes me wanna give it a humble 8.0/10.The songs & score are energetic which do cause an urge that we run with the athletes on-screen. The relation of every detail is astronomical and very well adapted. Much like last year's Paan Singh Tomar, BMB does have lots of surprises in store. The childhood story MAY bore you a little, but every other biopic has to be honest. But, the actresses were sidelined which is very apt for a bio-film.Most of the story is told in flashbacks and there is where the screenplay works. His demeanor is appreciable and the film does showcase his hard-work. Akhtar now has totally proved himself as a successful actor. Milkha Singh, wonderfully portrayed by the talented Farhan Akhtar is one character that induces inspiration. You get into high-spirits and then the story of The Flying Sikh begins.It talks more about perseverance and how man can excel even in the worst conditions than the actual atheltic history. In less than ten minutes into the film, you get goosebumps all over your body. The true story of the "Flying Sikh" - world champion runner and Olympian Milkha Singh - who overcame the massacre of his family, civil war during the India-Pakistan partition, and homelessness to become one of India's most iconic athletes.
