Rajkummar Rao to Play Sourav Ganguly Biopic in Upcoming Biopic Movie
This is some great news for cricket fans across India and a new impetus for fresh excitement. This long-announced Sourav Ganguly biopic – India’s former cricket captain, at last has found its lead actor after much speculation and theory from fans for months now. The much-applauded actor brings to life the Prince of Kolkata with his stunning talent. The much-anticipated news put smiles all over the faces of many supporters of Ganguly, all of whom were busy trying to guess who would be the chosen one for the iconic captaincy.
Rumors had been rife that Ranbir Kapoor would be playing the role. However, Ranbir himself cleared the air some time ago, stating he was out of the race. Since then, the fans have kept on speculating now the suspense is finally over.
Rajkummar Rao’s Happiness Expressed
The good news was confirmed by NDTV in an interview with Rajkummar Rao, known for Stree, Shahid, and Newton. “Now that Dada has already spoken about it, I can say it too — yes, I am playing Sourav Ganguly in his biopic.”
Rajkummar is totally excited for it; he also said that he feels weighed down with the responsibility. “Of course, there’s nervousness. Coming from an iconic figure like Sourav Ganguly, playing this role is going to be a huge challenge. But I am also sure it is going to be a very fulfilling experience.
Rajkummar is leaving no stone unturned in preparing for this career-defining role. One of the major to-dos is learning the Bengali language. He knows the language but is trying to perfect the dialect so that he can get the most authentic sound possible. His wife, actress Patralekhaa, a Bengali herself, is reportedly helping him with this.
Ganguly’s Trust in Rajkummar
Sourav Ganguly, aka Dada, has stated his part regarding Rajkummar heading this dream project. “I think the right person was chosen for the movie. Rajkummar is a stellar actor, and I’m sure he will do justice to my story. I shall assist him in every way I can,” said Ganguly.
Now, Ganguly’s personal nod surely adds more buzz to the project, because how often does a sporting legend endorse an actor for biopics in his name?
What do we know so far?
The Sourav Ganguly biopic will be produced under the banner of Luv Films, the production house behind several other successful Bollywood enterprises. There is now talk of whether Vikramaditya Motwane would be directing the movie, known for the films Lootera and Udaan; official confirmation is still awaited. The rest of the cast, title, and release are still to be divulged, but given the rising interest already, one can expect more news soon.
The life story of Sourav Ganguly is nothing short of inspiring. From leading the Indian team through some of its roughest phases to being the architect of an aggressive, fearless generation of cricketers, his journey deserves to become a story on the silver screen. Further lending credence to the fact that he would be a stellar choice to play the iconic figure, Rajkummar Rao’s dedication and acting abilities are unquestioned.
