We have already seen films based on lives of Indian cricketers MS Dhoni and Sachin Tendulkar. There is a biopic based on Jhulan Goswami in the works too.
Now, fans may get a chance to see the life and story of Sourav Ganguly on the screen.
According to reports, Alt Balaji, a subscription-based video on demand platform under Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji Telefilms Limited is reportedly in talks to produce a biopic based on the cricketer's life.
According to a report in Indian Express, the film will be based on the book ‘A Century is not Enough’, co-authored by Ganguly.
The report said that Ganguly had recently confirmed talks with Balaji but added that nothing is final.
“I have had a few discussions with Balaji, though nothing is final yet. I’ll have more details once we take this forward,” the report quoted him as saying.
The biopic of Sachin Tendulkar – Sachin: A Billion Dreams and Neeraj Pandey’s ‘MS Dhoni: The Untold Story’ based on the journey of Indian skipper MS Dhoni have been very successful at the box-office.
Ganguly's book ‘A Century is not Enough’ details the pivotal moments in the cricketer's long career and chronicles his journey in the world of cricket.
