Living in impoverished refugee camps, Milkha soon makes friends and survives by stealing along with his friends. He falls in love with Biro (Sonam Kapoor) but she asks him to live a life of honesty. He joins the Indian Army and they see his talent as an athlete. Even though he gets harassed by senior players whom he had defeated earlier, he gets selected for the Indian team for Olympics. He manages to win the race and makes it to the Indian Team.
