M.S.Dhoni comes to the silver-screen

Sep 25, 2014

With Suseenthiran's cricket-movie Jeeva ready to play at the box-office, "A Wednesday" fame Neeraj Pandey is now on the verge of starting another cricket-based film. Much to everybody's surprise, this new cricket movie will be a biopic based on our National hero, captain of the Indian cricket team M.S.Dhoni.

When lots of rumors were doing the rounds about the movie, that's when Dhoni's better half, Mrs. Saakshi herself tweeted the actual poster of the film. The promising young actor Sushant Singh Rajput would be getting the honour of playing the lead role in this movie which has been titled 'M.S.Dhoni - The Untold Story'.

Sporting biopics are a rarity in India and such type of movies are rarely made when the personality is actually active in his/her area of expertise, though Mary Kom and now M.S.Dhoni are special cases.

The poster of the film has Sushant in the trademark M.S.Dhoni stance, and we have to admit that it's a very good choice to cast him in the lead. Will the movie be a genuine effort at bringing Dhoni's life to screen? Will Sushant give life to MSD's character?
