Sourav Ganguly biopic actor: The recently announced biopic on the former captain has become an instant source of amazement for his fans.

Former India captain and current President of the BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India) Sourav Ganguly is “thrilled” after announcing his biopic earlier today.

Readers must note that a biopic on the celebrated life of Ganguly had been part of murmurs in the entertainment industry for some time now. Considering the kind of playing career which Ganguly has had, it encompasses the ideal ingredients for a biopic in the Hindi film industry.

Putting rest to all speculations, Ganguly took to his social media handles to make the official announcement with respect to a “journey to be cherished”.

“Cricket has been my life, it gave confidence and ability to walk forward with my head held high, a journey to be cherished. Thrilled that Luv Films will produce a biopic on my journey and bring it to life for the big screen,” Ganguly tweeted.
