First look of MS Dhoni's biopic revealed; Sushant Singh Rajput plays lead

'MS Dhoni – The Untold Story', is going to be the name of Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s biopic, due for release in 2015. The first look of the film’s poster was launched on Thursday. Sushant Singh Rajput will be playing the role of Dhoni in this film. The film has been directed by director Neeraj Pandey.

A few weeks ago, there were rumours that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) would oppose the making of this feature film. But BCCI brushed aside any such sush rumours and mentioned that they have no issues until and unless it hampers the professional life of the Indian captain.

There have been many biopics on sports personalities in recent times. One of the best known was of Milkha Singh’s – ‘Bhaag Milkha Bhaag‘; followed by Mary Kom’s biopic - "Mary Kom". Dhoni's biopic however is likely to make headlines unlike any other.
