RISHI KAPOOR AS "APJIT BINDRA"........

Biopics especially those on sporting icons certainly seem to be the flavour of the season within the echelons of the Hindi Film Industry........
 If the industry grapevine is to be believed; veteran actor par excellence Rishi Kapoor has been roped in by director Kannan Iyer to essay the role of shooting icon Abhinav Bindra's father in an upcoming biopic on the only shooter to have done the nation proud by winning a gold medal in the 2008 Beijing Olympics....... According to a source close to the proposed film; Kannan spent more than three years doing his research on Abhinav and the rest of the Bindra clan before firming up his script and going ahead with the pre production of the same.......
 Kannan in his infinite wisdom decided to shoot this forthcoming inspirational flick as a tale of a committed and dedicated father who spared no effort or expense in ensuring that the apple of his eye (Abhinav Bindra) reached the pinnacle of glory in his favourite shooting event and Abhinav on his part has been more than gracious enough to candidly admit that he owes both his father as well his coach an inestimable debt of gratitude for his unprecedented success and celebrity status.......
Though Kannan is yet to firm up his choice of the male actor who will essay the title role of Abhinav Bindra in the film that is slated to hit the screens in the last quarter of 2017; an enthralled and enthusiastic Rishi Kapoor has already began priming himself to play the dream role of Apjit Bindra a principled; disciplined; upright and distinguished gentleman who dreamt seemingly inachieveable dreams for his darling son and was unstinting and unrelenting in both his support and efforts to transform these fond dreams into a concrete reality........
 Sir (Rishi Kapoor) is also kicked about his role in this particular film as his very own son and apple of his eye Ranbir Kapoor shares his birth date and year (September 28;1982) with Abhinav; the source bashfully signs off........
 Here's wishing this forthcoming biopic the very best and hoping that is sets a benchmark for other similar and dissimilar biopics to follow in it's wake........
