Sachin Tendulkar will play in his own character in biopic

Indian batting legend, Sachin Tendulkar, is going to make his entrance in the film industry with a biopic made on his life. In this film, he will play his own character.
200NotOut, which is a Mumbai-based production house, has told the BBC that the film will be directed by James Erskine, an award winning British director.
According to a spokesperson of this company, most of the part of this film will be about his personal life since his cricketing career is well known.
The films name is yet to be fixed. It is expected that the duration of this film will be between 90 minutes and two hours. Krishna Ananthan has told the BBC that their production company is aiming to release it by the end of this year or early next year. The main audience of this film will be Tendulkar’s fans all over the world.

Sachin Tendulkar announced his retirement from international cricket in 2013. In his long 24-year cricket career, he has broken almost all the records. He is the only batsman to have scored 100 international centuries beside his name. He is the highest run scorer both in Test and ODI cricket formats. Playing 200 Tests, he has scored 15,921 at an average of 53.78. He has played 463 OIDs and scored 18,426 runs at an average of 44.83. For his contribution to the Indian sports, he was given Bharat Ratna award by the Indian government.
