Monday, 23rd Feb 2015, 2:29 PM IST After the biopics on Milkha Singh, Paan Singh Tomar and Mary Kom, now it is learnt that there will a biopic on badminton player, Pullela Gopichand. Pullela was the second winner of the All England Open Championships after Prakash Padukone. The former captain of the Indian badminton team, Sanjay Sharma and his daughter Shachi have written a script about the struggles Pullela had in his career. The biopic will be an adaptation of a book that they wrote in 2011. Talking about the biopic, Shachi said, "We've all read and heard so much about Prakash Padukone and more recently, Saina Nehwal. But not many are familiar with Gopichand's story, especially his struggles before he became a badminton star. It deserves a big-screen treatment." The film will go on floors later this year and will be directed by Rikhil Bahadur.
