39-year-old Lee, who is making his acting debut with Australian film Unindian is excited about biopic on Tendulkar titled Sachin: A Billion Dreams.

The upcoming Indian biographical film is helmed by James Erskine and it stars the cricket maestro himself.

"It's great to see films on cricketers' life and journey. I am looking forward to see Sachin Tendulkar biopic. I like that more. He is a great player and a nice human being," Brett told PTI.
