Bollywood director Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra on Tuesday took a stroll down memory lane and shared a string of throwback pictures which features the Flying Sikh Milkha Singh. Taking to Instagram, the Delhi-6 director captioned the post, "I remember watching this film with Milkha ji. There were only the three of us Milkha Singh , Farhan and I. He sat in the centre. Once the film got over, it was very hard to say how he felt, as it must be surreal to see your life playing out before you. He had tears in his eyes, held my hands and spoke in a choked voice. This happened exactly 9 years ago, on this very same day. 25 Years of Mrityudand: Madhuri Dixit Goes Down the Memory Lane, Shares Stills From Prakash Jha Directorial.
