The legendary sprinter Milkha Singh aka ‘Flying Singh’ passes away after a  month-long battle with Covid-19 yesterday. He was 91 years old and admitted to the ICU of the PGIMER hospital in Chandigarh.

Shah Rukh Khan took to his Twitter handle and wrote, “The Flying Sikh may no longer be with us in person but his presence will always be felt and his legacy will remain unmatched… An inspiration to me… an inspiration to millions. Rest in Peace Milkha Singh sir.”

On the other hand, the Khiladi actor Aksay Kumar conveying his pities wrote, “Incredibly sad to hear about the demise of #MilkhaSingh ji. The one character I forever regret not playing on-screen! May you have a golden run in heaven, Flying Sikh. Om shanti, Sir.”

Actress Priyanka Chopra penned, “Warm and welcoming, you made our first meeting so so special. I have been inspired by your excellence, touched by your humility, influenced by your contribution to our country. Om Shanti #Milkha ji. Sending love and prayers to the family. #MilkhaSingh.” Taapsee Pannu wrote, “And he flew away.”

Milkha Singh had tested positive for Covid-19 last month and was in isolation at his home in Chandigarh before taking to the hospital. The former sprinter is a four-time Asian Games gold-medallist and 1958 Commonwealth Games champion. He is still the only Indian athlete to win Gold in the Asian and Commonwealth Championship. He was awarded the Padma Shri, India’s fourth-highest civilian honour, in recognition of his sporting achievements. His wife, Nirmal Milkha Singh died of Covid-19 at the age of 85 on June 13.
