in the Budhia Singh - Born To Run
Budhia Singh may have been born to run, but what is more interesting are the twists of fate that followed him. He was sold by his own mother to a salesman, before being rescued and adopted by a Judo coach and a local do-gooder. The coach, Biranchi Das (Manoj Bajpayee), noticed that the boy could run for hours, and this is where the story begins.
