Biopics are Bollywood's newfound love and after the success of 'MS Dhoni', 'Sanju', 'Shershah' and others, one more tale of a national hero is about to get a cinematic adaptation. India's chess grandmaster and former world champion Viswanathan Anand recently confirmed that a biopic on his life is in production and he wants actor Aamir Khan to essay his role in it.

Anand shared, I have agreed to the biopic. The matter has already been discussed with the producer several times. I told them the stories of my life. The scriptwriting work will start very soon. However, due to Corona, the work has come to a standstill. Hopefully, everything will start very soon. I can’t say much about the biopic now. I don’t know when or how the shooting will start. Wait for a few days everything we will get to know about this biopic”

When questioned about the casting of the biopic, Anand said, I can’t say who will play my role in the movie. But I can say my choice. Maybe it would be nice if Aamir Khan play Viswanathan Anand on screen. I think Aamir Khan has a lot in common with me.
