Anurag Kashyap Reveals Why He Won’t Make Virat Kohli’s Biopic
In an interview with Filmygyan, Anurag Kashyap revealed that he would never make Virat Kohli’s biopic. He said, “I don't know if I would want to because he is already a hero to many people, many children. If I would have to do a biopic, I would choose something difficult from a person’s life. He is a very beautiful man, I know him personally, and he is a very authentic human being. He is very emotional, an incredible person with incredible discipline. He would rather not be part of mediocrity and step away than continue, which is always with the people that I look up to.”
