Sourav Ganguly wants Ranbir Kapoor to play him in biopic

After MS Dhoni, Kapil Dev and the likes, another Indian cricket legend has confirmed a biopic of him is on the way.

Sourav Ganguly has shared with News 18 that a film based on his life is in the works. In an interview, he had said, "Yes, I have agreed to the biopic. It will be in Hindi but it is not possible to reveal the name of the director now. It will take some more time for everything to be finalised."

Now, the big question is who will play the former Indian Cricket team captain? One of the prominent names rumoured to be have been roped in is Bollywood star, Ranbir Kapoor. And what's better is that Ganguly approves!

Indian trade analyst Komal Nahta, too, agreed. “It is psychological but Ranbir definitely fits the bill. He will look like Ganguly, one has seen him play Sanjay Dutt in Sanju (2018). He is a fantastic choice," Nahta told Hindustan Times.

Earlier, when Neha Dhupia suggested that Hrithik Roshan will be the best choice to play Ganguly on screen, the former cricketer had said, "But he’s got to get a body like me, first. A lot of people would say the way Hrithik’s body is, how good-looking he is, and how muscular he is, people would say ‘Aree, you’ll have to get a body like Hrithik’. But, Hrithik will have to get a body like me before he starts."
