Farhan Akhtar On Indian Idol Junior to Promotes BHAAG MILKHA BHAAG 

Farhan Akhtar, one has to expect surprises galore! This was apparent when he made a stopover on the sets of Sony Entertainment Television's popular singing reality show Indian Idol Junior to promote his upcoming flick Bhaag Milkha Bhaag and gave everyone a 'milky' break!

Farhan Akhtar made an appearance along with director Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra on the show and was seen at his funny best. Be it pulling Judge Shekhar, Shreya or Vishal's leg or tickling show host Karan Wahi's funny bone, he did it all! But the icing on the cake was his spontaneous milky jig, in store for Indian Idol Junior singing sensations, judges and hosts - Karan and Mandira.

Director Omprakash Mehra let know all contestants about Milkha Singh's life struggle and the fact that he loved drinking milk. And that was it! To everyone's surprise, Farhan called for a doodhwala bhaiyya with a huge milk container in order to feed milk to all.

The connect was Milkha Singh's intense fondness for milk. Show judge Shreya however turned him down by declining to guzzle it. She was heard saying "I hate drinking milk. I have only drunk milk once in my childhood."

That's not all, show host Karan Wahi couldn't help but taking the entire container to where Farhan was seated and requesting the spot boys for a straw so that Farhan can drink it all.

And if you thought the fun ended here, Farhan captivated all by putting his dancing shoes on and tapping on the song Zinda from one of his flicks only to be joined by a contestant Eman Choudhury who danced with him on another song.

Overwhelmed by the talent of Indian Idol Junior Farhan, in fact, tweeted about his experience with the kids and said "What a treat the Indian Idol juniors are...Pure talent. So lucky to have heard them live. Best wishes to them all."

Looks like after Salman Khan Idol Juniors have found another fan in Farhan Akhtar.
