When Bhaag Milkha Bhaag released, the audience was not only taken aback by the way Farhan Akhtar had transformed into the mien of the legendary Olympian but also, by the life-story of Milkha Singh. To mark the day on the occasion of Milkha Singh's birthday, the reel-life 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag', Farhan Akhtar wished the icon with the best and sweetest wishes.

Taking to his social media, Farhan shared a picture of young Milkha Singh and wrote, `Happy birthday to the 'Flying Sikh' .. love you Milkha-ji. Wish you good health and happiness always. @realjeevmilkhasingh`. The wishes by the actor truly reflect onto the respect and high regard Farhan places upon his real-life Milkha, whose character he had essayed on screen.



After acing the role of an athlete in Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, the actor is all set to step into the boxing ring for Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra directorial `Toofan`.

Popularly known as Bollywood's Polymath, on the one hand, Farhan is an actor who dons many hats as that of a singer, writer to name a few and on the other, he is an intense actor who lives every character he portrays. Farhan raises the bar high for himself with every project he takes on. To get into the skin of the character for his upcoming movie Toofan, Farhan has undergone a body transformation and is also undertaking special boxing lessons by professional boxers. Deja vu! to the time when Farhan underwent a complete transformation to play Milkha, on screen.

Despite the injury, while shooting for Toofan, Farhan has been keen on continuing the training and keeping the focus high, rather than taking any break. Prepping up high over the time for his next, Farhan also makes sure that he keeps his fans posted all through his fitness and boxing sessions.

It is his commitment to his craft that has propelled Farhan, in becoming one of the most sought after actors of the industry and the fans are really looking forward to seeing the multi-talented actor win over the screens, yet again.

Farhan's next, Toofan is an Excel Entertainment production, brought together in association with ROMP pictures and will be hitting the screens on 2nd October 2020.
