Jingthing Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) Heads up to local film buffs. TONIGHT Friday August 16 at the Avenue Cinema at 10:30 you can see this film: http://www.movieseer.com/th/movies/27545--Bhaag_Milkha_Bhaag It was filmed in Pattaya. It is VERY LONG film, over 3 hours. It is about a famous Sikh Indian Olympic runner (his life story). The movieseer item says it has an English soundtrack and Thai subtitles. I am not so sure, but that's what it says. The filming language based on IMDB is Hindi: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2356180/ I don't know if this a one night only thing or not at this point. But it might be only one night, something like Indian cinema night. Longer than three hours, it's more marathon than sprint, but director Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's epic "Bhaag Milkha Bhaag" (Run, Milkha, Run) — about India's legendary track-and-field star Milkha Singh, nicknamed "The Flying Sikh" — is often an engrossing example of the sweeping, stirring biography. http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/moviesnow/la-et-mn-bhaag-milkha-bhaag-review-20130711,0,3528085.story Edited August 16, 2013 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 With tickets at 250 baht it appears as I suspected to be a special event night. Seat availability might be an issue. Lots of Indian people in town, local and tourists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canman Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Saw this being heavily advertised when I was in India a while back. Didn't realise it was filmed in Pattaya. 3 hrs, better bring a pillow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xen Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 About two years ago i saw an indian film crew in Walking street trying to film something and they had a hell of a time trying to prevent people walking in front of the camera whilst filming. They would start and somebody would walk between the camera and the action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would start and somebody would walk between the camera and the action. They filmed some of it on the beach down near the Ambassador. Quite a big deal. At least I'm assuming it was this movie. Not sure I could take 3 hours of dancing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted August 17, 2013 Author Share Posted August 17, 2013 It's on again tonight at 10:30. I still think this might be part of a special event thing rather than a normal film run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure what i saw was that particular film or another one or it could have been an commercial but it must have been frustrating ,and expensive for them .
