The legendary athlete Milkha Singh will be leaving for London today for the premiere of ‘Bhaag Milkha Bhaag’, the film which is based on his sprinting career.

He will be accompanied by Farhan Akhtar and Sonam Kapoor, as well as director Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra. Milkha said, "There’s a special screening of the film in London. Farhan insisted that I join them.

He said I have many fans there who want to see me in person. So I decided to join them." Meanwhile, Milkha has given his wholesome approval to the film. "I saw the film in Delhi. I have no objections to any portions in it.

I think it’s a film that will inspire many youngsters," Milkha said, rather confidently.

‘Bhaag Milkha Bhaag’ is slated to release worldwide on 12th July.
