Rajkummar Rao confirmed for Sourav Ganguly in upcoming biopic! Rajkummar Rao, known for his powerful and realistic performances, has officially confirmed that he will be playing the role of former Indian cricket captain Sourav Ganguly in his much-awaited biopic. The news has created a buzz among both Bollywood and cricket fans, as Ganguly’s journey from a young boy in Kolkata to leading Team India is nothing short of inspiring.
In a recent interview, Rajkummar shared his excitement and nervousness about the role. He said, “I am nervous, but at the same time, very excited. It’s a huge responsibility to portray someone as iconic as Dada (Sourav Ganguly), but it’s going to be a lot of fun too.” He even impressed everyone by speaking a few lines in Bengali, crediting his wife, Patralekhaa, who is Bengali, for helping him get the accent right.
Sourav Ganguly, who is closely involved in the making of the biopic, has shown full support for the casting. He said, “I think the right person is doing the film. Rajkummar Rao is a fine actor, and I will help him with everything he needs.” Ganguly also revealed that filming is expected to begin in January 2026, and the movie is likely to hit cinemas by December 2026.
The film will be produced by Luv Films and directed by Vikramaditya Motwane. Though the official title has not been revealed yet, the movie promises to cover key moments from Ganguly’s cricketing career, leadership journey, and personal life.
Rajkummar Rao has a proven track record with biographical roles, having delivered memorable performances in films like Shahid, Omerta, and most recently Srikanth, based on the life of visually impaired entrepreneur Srikanth Bolla. Fans are hopeful that he will bring the same level of depth and realism to the role of Ganguly. With Ganguly’s life full of highs and lows, major cricketing milestones, and dramatic comebacks, the biopic is expected to be both emotional and inspiring. Cricket lovers and cinema-goers alike are now eagerly waiting to see how this story unfolds on the big screen.
