Pullela Gopichand biopic News

A biopic on former badminton player and chief national coach Pullela Gopichand was announced on his birthday on Thursday. Fox Star Studios in collaboration with Abundantia Entertainment is set to present the biopic. 

Bollywood seems to have developed a strong inclination towards sports biopics. After the huge success of Chak De India, Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, Mary Kom and Dangal, now a biopic based on the life of ace badminton champ and coach Pullela Gopichand has been announced. 

To be directed by Praveen Sattaru, the project will roll from October.
