Rumours were doing the rounds of late that actress Sonakshi Sinha, who was most recently seen in Dharma Productions’ Kalank (2019), was set to star in an upcoming biopic based on the life of Paralympics Champion Deepa Malik. Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani, who have rights to the biopic secured with them, will bankroll it under the banner of Excel Entertainment.
However, when Sonakshi Sinha was asked about the same, she had something different to say. Talking about the film, the actress told an entertainment portal, “It's all speculation right now. I am not the kind of person who would talk about a film until I have signed on the dotted line. People can speculate what they want to but when my films have to be announced, the right people will do it.”
When asked if she would be interested in headlining a biopic at this point in her career, Sonakshi Sinha added, “I would be interested in doing a good story, something which challenges me and has a great role for me.”
Meanwhile, Sonakshi Sinha is currently looking forward to the release of her next film Khandaani Shafakhana. Helmed by debutante Shilpi Dasgupta, Khandaani Shafakhana also stars talented actors Varun Sharma and Annu Kapoor in important roles. The film is set to hit the silver screen on 26th July, 2019.
After the release of Khandaani Shafakhana, Sonakshi Sinha will next be seen in the upcoming multi-starrer Mission Mangal. Slated to hit the marquee on 15th August, the film also features Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan, Taapsee Pannu, Nithya Menen, Sharman Joshi and Kirti Kulhari on its ensemble cast.
The actress will cap off 2019 with the release of her much-awaited film Dabangg 3. Also starring superstar Salman Khan, who returns to play his iconic character of Chulbul Pandey for the third time, the cop-drama is scheduled to release on 20th December.
