On the heels of the success of Vicky Kaushal starrer Uri: The Surgical Strike, producer Ronnie Screwvala has bagged another big ticket project. After much negotiation, his production house RSVP Movies has been given the rights for a biopic of tennis champion Sania Mirza.
The player, who has won six Grand Slam titles, was quoted by Mumbai Mirror as saying,
“It’s excitement combined with nervousness — a ‘butterfly in your stomach’ feeling —when you are about to let your life story out to the world. It’s what I felt when my biography was written and I feel exactly the same when my journey is going to be presented on the big screen. I know it’s in good hands with an astute producer like Ronnie (Screwvala), who’s known for telling stories impactfully. I am so excited to partner with him and his team at RSVP and honestly can’t wait for it to go on floors.”
