World's youngest marathon runner
Budhia Singh
who is now all set to see the release of his biopic 'Budhia Singh ' Born To Run' has gone missing from the sports hostel he was lodged in. The wonder kid who created a record by running 65 km between Puri and Bhubaneshwar at the age of four is now a 9th standard student at DAV school and was lodged at Bhubaneshwar's Sports Authority of India (SAI) hostel.
However, he did not return to the hostel after his summer vacations and despite sending two letters, there has been no response.
Reportedly, the kid was not happy at the hostel as he was being asked to run only sprints which he didn't want to. For the record, child actor
Mayur Patole
will be seen as Budhia Singh and
Manoj Bajpayee as his late coach Biranchi Das in the upcoming film 'Budhia Singh ' Born To Run'.
