And, here they come.

Stepping out onto the field.

this runner...

... is known as the lndian saint.

He is lndia's Milkha Singh.

lndia in the 400m race?

On your mark.

Hello?

Hello, Milkha?

Ranvir, after the

Rome Olympics loss...

l understand Milkha's mental state.

But you see...

... our Prime Minister and Pakistan's

President General Ayub Khan...

... have great interest in

this contest. What do we tell them?

The announcements are made.

Milkha is our star. lf he refuses,

it'll send the wrong signal.

Wrong signal?

lt's about the upcoming

lndia-Pakistan Games

Oh yes, yes. Please sit.

These games aren't

just games but a means...

... to bring our countries closer.

All the arrangements have been made,

sir. Everything is on it track?

But?

Our star Milkha refuses

to go to Pakistan.

Convince him.

We're trying. But since

he lost the Rome Olympics...

You win some, you lose some.

Mr. Prime Minister,

Pardon me. My name is Ranvir Singh.

Milkha Singh's coach.

This isn't about losing in Rome.

He refuses to go to Pakistan...

... for personal reasons.

Mr. Wadhwa...

... take Ranvir Singh...

... and go and talk to Milkha.

Good morning, sir.

Oh good morning come.

Hello...

How are you, sir? - Very well.

Come in.

The Delhi to Chandigarh Amrapali Express

is about to leave from platform no. 1 .

Milkha Singh listens to him...

... so l requested him to come too.

Thanks for coming, Mr.

Gurudev Singh.

l hope you can

help persuade Milkha.

Read this?

"l will not go to Pakistan."

What is the reason?

lt's a long story, sir.
