Actor Parineeti Chopra’s next film, a biopic on ace badminton player Saina Nehwal, is scheduled for a theatrical release on March 26, the manufacturers announced Tuesday.
Titled “Saina”, the film has been directed by Amol Gupte, who has helmed acclaimed movies like “Stanley Ka Dabba” and “Hawa Hawaai”.
T-Series, headed by Bhushan Kumar, has produced “Saina”. “Presenting the inspiring story of 1 of India’s greatest athletes, #Saina. In cinemas on 26th March,” the tweet on T-Series official Twitter page read. Chopra, whose “The Girl on The Train” released last week on Netflix, shot for “Saina” in 2019. “Saina” was earlier alleged to be headlined by Shraddha Kapoor, who exited the project thanks to scheduling issues. This will be Chopra’s second theatrical release for March, after Dibakar Banerjee’s “Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar”. Also starring Arjun Kapoor, the film is scheduled to open on Saint Joseph .
