Yuvraj Singh is one of the most popular batsmen in the world with a fan following spread all across the globe. He is a youth cricket icon whose eventful life certainly makes for a good biopic. There are many people who would just love to see a biopic on his life filled with several highs and lows. So, who do you think could play him onscreen?

Recently, when the great sportsman was asked the same question that who he would like to see play him on celluloid, he said that Siddhant Chaturvedi, the breakout star from the film Gully Boy (2019), would be a good choice.


“See, that is the director’s job to decide. If it is going to be a Bollywood film, then Siddhant Chaturvedi is a good option. I would love to see him in the film,” said Yuvraj Singh when asked who he would like to see play him in a film.

This is indeed a big thing for a newcomer like Siddhant Chaturvedi who is just a one film old. Chaturvedi made his silver screen debut with Zoya Akhtar’s critically and commercially successful film Gully Boy. The movie was a huge success at the box-office and made him a household name in no time.
