Kangana Ranaut reportedly considering a film about Paralympian Deepa Malik's life, with her expressing interest in the role.
Deepa Malik, India's first female Paralympic medalist, has expressed her approval for actress Kangana Ranaut to portray her character in a potential movie about her life. The news was shared during a recent event, the Team India jersey launch for the upcoming World Para Athletics Championships in New Delhi.
Deepa Malik, a Paralympic champion and a symbol of resilience, has made history by winning medals across several international events in shot put and javelin throw. She began her sporting career at the age of 40 and has since become a face of inspiration, highlighting the struggles of para-athletes in various ways.
The potential biopic is expected to be a mix of action, drama, romance, and more, reflecting Deepa Malik's diverse life. As a biker, swimmer, car rallyist, and mother, her life story promises to be an engaging and inspiring tale.
Kangana Ranaut, who recently directed 'Emergency' and previously explored the world of sports through her film Panga, where she played a kabaddi player, is excited about the prospect of bringing Deepa Malik's story to the big screen. As a brand ambassador of the Paralympic Committee of India, Kangana believes films like these can have a lasting impact on inspiring the next generation.
Deepa Malik's autobiography 'Bring It On' has recently been released, offering a glimpse into her life and journey. She is also a mother of two specially-abled children, adding another layer of depth to her inspiring story.
Kangana Ranaut made these statements at the Team India jersey launch, where she was joined by an impressive cast including Anupam Kher, Mahima Chaudhry, Milind Soman, Shreyas Talpade, and the late Satish Kaushik.
Deepa Malik made history as the first Indian woman to win a medal at the Paralympic Games in 2016, and her story continues to inspire countless individuals around the world. The upcoming biopic promises to be a powerful and moving tribute to her resilience and determination.
