Biopics or more specifically biopics on sporting icons certainly seem to be the flavour of the season or then current craze amongst the corridors of the Indian film industry.......
Notable films on sporting legends like the "Flying Sikh" Milkha Singh; infamous and seemingly controversial former Indian test and ODI captain Mohammad Azharuddin and last but not the least hitherto unknown Haryanvi wrestler "Sultan" have already hit the screens while the much awaited biopic on cricketing legend M.S.Dhoni is slated for a mid September release.......
While the entire nation and Indian diaspora spread across the entire expanse of planet earth is going ga ga over the notable achievements of the nation's latest "pin up" lass P.V. Sindhu; the man or then should I say pillar who played an instrumental role in making her what she is Pullela Gopichand seems to have been relegated to the background as per tradition......
Hyderabad based producer and film exhibitor/distributor Abhishek Nama who is a self confessed Gopichand "devotee" has taken the onus of setting right this anomaly or "slight" to his sporting idol by publicly announcing his intentions of immortalising Gopi's incomparable achievements on celluloid by launching a Hindi-Telugu biopic based on his life and times that will go on the floors week of November 2016.......
"This proposed heroic saga will largely focus on Gopi's noteworthy sporting exploits that came to a head with his euphoric victory in the iconic All England Championship that he annexed way back in 2001 thereby emulating the sterling deeds of his inspiration Prakash Padukone"........
"Gopi has seen practically every shade/facet/vagary or then vicissitude of life during his forty odd years of existence on planet earth be it romance; triumph; defeat; despair; heartbreak; despondence; euphoria; and so on and so forth and the ongoing saga of his life is therefore just right and appropriate to be encapsulated in a two odd hour long film"; Nama signs off.......
This proposed biopic tentatively titled "Pullela Gopichand" will be helmed or directed by the national award winner Praveen Sattaru and will be extensively shot in a start to finish hundred odd day marathon schedule spanning across Hyderabad; Bengaluru; Lucknow and Birmigham (the home or then should I say venue of the All England Championship)........
"Pullela Gopichand" will grace the screens around March/April 2017 and successfully immortalise the legend of India's most celebrated badminton coach/mentor for posterity.......
