BCCI President Sourav Ganguly will soon have a biopic made on his journey. The news was shared by the former Indian captain himself on his social media handles, stating that the movie will be produced by Luv Ranjan and Ankur Garg under the Luv Films banner.

"Cricket has been my life, it gave confidence and ability to walk forward with my head held high, a journey to be cherished. Thrilled that Luv Films will produce a biopic on my journey and bring it to life for the big screen @LuvFilms @luv_ranjan @gargankur @DasSanjay1812," Ganguly's post read. The producers also confirmed the same with a message that said, "We are thrilled to announce that Luv Films will produce Dada Sourav Ganguly's biopic. We are honoured to be entrusted with this responsibility and look forward to a great innings."
