You taught us to dream big and then chase those dreams despite all odds. You will continue to inspire generations to come. Thank you for giving the entire country Flag of India, years of pride and honour. You'll always be our hero. The nation will remember you & seek inspiration from your life forever. #MilkhaSingh" shared Balakrishna on his Facebook profile.
