Biopic on Dhyan Chand starring Varun Dhawan to be produced by MS Dhoni?

The biopic on MS Dhoni starring Susant Singh Rajput received applause from both, the critics and the audience. With this, looks like Mahendra Singh Dhoni now wants to venture in Bollywood. If the reports are anything to go by, then he might turn a producer with legendary Hockey player Dhyan Chand’s biopic.

Reports further suggest that the film will be helmed by filmmaker Rohit Vaid and will star Varun Dhawan in the lead. While no official announcement has been made yet, Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions might co-produce the project.

“Cricketer M.S. Dhoni has acquired the rights to the film and might produce it. It is still not clear whether Karan will be co-producing the film, but Rohit is very much directing the film with Varun,” a source was quoted saying, by Deccan Chronicle.

Rohit’s ‘Mahayoddha Rama’ won the National Award for Best Animated Film this year. Apparently, Karan Johar didn’t want him to direct the film initially, neither did Varun Dhawan. But Rohit’s National Award win changed their minds.
