M.S. Dhoni Might Don The Producer¡¯s Hat For Hockey Legend Dhyan Chand¡¯s Biopic!

Keeping with the trend of biographical films in Bollywood seems like another biopic is lined up to go on floors soon. If grapevine is to be believed, skipper M.S. Dhoni, who took the nation by storm with his cricketing skills, is now all set to try his hands in the world of entertainment. The much-loved cricketer is apparently starting new innings of his career by donning the producer¡¯s hat.

According to a report published on deccanchronicle.com, M.S. Dhoni has acquired the rights to the film and is keen on producing the movie, which has been in the works for a very long time.

Earlier, Karan Johar had announced the film last year, but then seemingly things didn¡¯t turn out as expected, and so, the movie was put on hold.

Varun Dhawan is likely to play the titular role!

Rumours were abuzz last year that Varun Dhawan was approached for the role but he rejected the offer then. Now, rumour has it that Varun has given his nod of consent for the biopic and is excited to play the role.

On the other side, gossip mills have also been churning out stories that earlier KJo and Varun both didn¡¯t want Rohit Vaid to direct the film. Since Vaid had the legal rights, the project was shelved at that time. Now, that Rahul Vaid¡¯s Mahayoddha Rama has the National Award for Best Animated Film, makers are ready to go ahead with the script. Also, Vaid has reworked on the script too.

Now that KJo and Dhoni are both interested in producing the movie, it remains to be seen whether they will collaborate for the project!
