Actor Ayushmann Khurrana, who is known for his lively and multifaceted personality, recently expressed his desire to portray national icon Neeraj Chopra in a potential biopic. Neeraj created history after bagging the Gold Medal in Men's Javelin Throw in 2020 Tokyo Olympics and it is only a matter of time till somebody decides to give his story a cinematic adaptation.

Ayushmann told ETimes, "I'm constantly inspired by real people who do extraordinary things. Right now, I'm hugely inspired by Neeraj Chopra and what this youth icon has achieved on the world stage and made our nation incredibly proud."

He further added, "The resolve and the nerves of steel that he showcased at the Olympics to a win gold for India needs to be saluted. I would love to play him in a biopic if it's made in the near future and if Neeraj chooses to not play himself on screen."
