My writers will be in Delhi next month and try to get in touch with the investigating team.”

Kumar doesn’t wish to time period this challenge as a biopic though it is going to be primarily based on Chandrasekhar and can embrace his private life, dishonest and cash laundering instances in addition to the link-ups with actors Jacqueline Fernandes and Nora Fatehi. “Biopics mahaan logon ki banti hain.

Such personalities have never been explored before [in Indian cinema].”
