Former Indian cricket captain Mohammad Azharuddin is the latest to join the long list of personalities whose biopics are currently under production. And although Ekta Kapoor is yet to go on record about the project, it is rumoured that work on the much-talked-about film is already underway.
Apparently, Ekta has brought on board her favourite writer, Rajat Arora (who wrote The Dirty Picture, 2011, and the Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai series) to start work on the script.
It’s believed that the producer signed a contract with Azharuddin last month for a handsome amount to acquire the rights to the biopic. Although an official announcement is still awaited, the film is expected to go on the floors later this year.
Despite repeated attempts, Ekta remained unavailable for a comment.
