SCOOP: After Mithali Raj, Taapsee Pannu to essay the role of Sania Mirza in her biopic?

Taapsee Pannu is clearly on a roll. The actress, who has delivered some fantastic performances in the last two years, has one of the strongest line ups among actors of the current generation. While she has almost 4 films almost over - Do Baara, Rashmi Rocket, Haseen Dillruba and a South film, the Pink actress is currently prepping for her sports biopic Shabaash Mithu on Mithali Raj's life.

SCOOP: After Mithali Raj, Taapsee Pannu to essay the role of Sania Mirza in her biopic?

But now, we can tell you that the Mithali Raj biopic isn't the only sports biopic Taapsee is doing. A source says, "Taapsee has now been approached for the Sania Mirza biopic as well. This has been in the works for some time. Ronnie Screwvala bought the rights to her life. The makers wanted a younger actress to play Sania and after Parineeti Chopra playing Saina, they didn't want her to do it. They took the film to Taapsee who has liked the script."

Taapsee's team is currently working out the modalities for the same. Apart from the cricketer biopic, Taapsee is also in talks for Rajkumar Hirani's next with Shah Rukh Khan but according to latest reports, that film has got pushed. So, Taapsee might be able to accommodate the Sania Mirza biopic in that time frame now.

"Mohinder Amarnath was my dad's favorite cricketer" - says Saqib Saleem

Saqib Saleem, who is giving finishing touches to his performance in what is undoubtedly 2020's most anticipated film - '83,  is absolutely excited to play Mohinder Amarnath in the upcoming Ranveer Singh starrer. But the reason is not just limited to him being part of this iconic project but for what it means to him personally. Talking about wanting to be a cricketer growing up, Saqib says, "Doing '83 was almost like an act of fate. I grew up playing cricket wanting to go pro. I played State level U-19 but that was that. When I decided to become an actor, I knew that life was going to take a whole new path. When I heard about Kabir sir casting for 83, I chased him to ensure I was able to atleast audition." Saqib didn't just have a cricketing connection with '83, but also a solid connection with the character he plays - the man of the match of the '83 World Cup finals - Mohinder aka Jimmy Amarnath.
