I hope someone, somewhere, someday will invest in my biopic also, says Virender Sehwag on biopic movie trend!

Ex Indian skipper Virender Sehwag celebrated his birthday yesterday. The timeline of Twitter King was swamped with messages from his admirers and colleagues around the world. 

Nowadays, the present trend is of biopics being made on sports stars. With the newest movie M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story breaking all the records at the box-office, a famous daily asked Sehwag if he goes the biopic way, to which he told, "Let's see. Shayad koi mujh par bhi paisa laga de. I hope someone, somewhere, someday will invest in my biopic also."

He disclosed that he hasn't seen the film yet. Viru as he is fondly called further added, "My sons were very excited to see the film so they went for the first day, first show. Since I was doing commentary on that day, I couldn’t make it. I’ll watch it soon and put something on Twitter and get everybody talking again."

Furthermore, he was asked about the documentary film made on legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, to which he told, "Not just me, everyone is looking forward to it. People want to know more about Sachin’s journey in cricket, his life and what he went through when not playing in the team."

Whenever we watch a biopic, we expect some light on the controversial life of the person. When Sehwag was asked whether a film on sportsperson's life only about controversies and not their known professional achievements. He further added, "The script is read and approved by the cricketer, and one can choose to show only controversies or personal relationship with friends or wives or girlfriends. Tomorrow if a film is made on me, I will decide what I want to show to the public on the big screen."


Speaking about, the way he celebrates his birthday, Viru said, "I don’t like to party. I like to spend time with family on my birthday." He shared a fond memory telling, "Till the day I didn’t play under-19 World Cup, nobody ever celebrated my birthday. And the moment I played for the Indian team, my family got excited and ordered and cut a cake for me in front of 40-50 family members."
