It seems that actor Randeep Hooda has developed a newfound interest in biopics. After starring in biopics like Rang Rasiya, Main Aur Charles, and Sarbjit, the award-winning actor has now given his nod to headline another biopic based on the life of dacoit Sultana.
To be directed by Madhureeta Anand, the film is an official adaptation of Sujit Saraf's novel - The confessions of Sultana Daku and will see Hooda in the titular role. If all goes well, the project will mount floors in April next year.
Talking about the film, producer Rahul Mittra says, "The film will be shot in the Terai region of Uttar Pradesh and Randeep, who is a champion horseman and rider, will film the extensive action and racing sequences in Kazakistan, where real locations will pass off as North India from the '20s."
Though the film is based on Sujit Saraf's novel, the makers are keen to contemporize the story, keeping the taste of the present day audience in mind. "The approach to the film will not be dark and gory and more like a superhero-drama, where Robin Hood Randeep's character takes from the rich and gives to the poor as India fights for freedom," Mittra added.
Before Sultana Daku, Randeep Hooda will be seen in Battle of Saragarhi, a biopic where the actor plays the role of Havildar Ishar Singh.
