Actress Divya Dutta – who wowed us with her role as the single mother in Gippy – will now be seen in Bhaag Milkha Bhaag where she plays the role of Isri Kaur, Milha Singh’s sister.

Milkha Singh shared a special bond with his elder sister, Isri Kaur, and so the scenes between Divya and Farhan Akhtar (who plays Milkha) were intense and crucial for the film.

Says Divya, “I didn’t use glycerin for many scenes in the movie. The audience will get to watch such an intense relationship between two siblings on the big screen after a very long time. While shooting, the affectionate look on Farhan’s face would automatically stimulate an elder sisters protective instinct in me.Though I’ve always admired him, his performance in this film took me by surprise.”
