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.”
