India's first National Basketball Association (NBA) player
Satnam Singh Bhamara tells it will be a proud moment for him if an Indian
filmmaker decides to make a movie on his life. He feels Bollywood actor
Abhishek Bachchan would be the best to play his character on the silver screen.
"To see a biopic being made on my life and my journey
from India to America will definitely be the best experience for me. According
to my height, Akshay Kumar and Abhishek Bachchan will suit best for the
role," Bhamara said in mail from Dallas to a media source.
He firther added, "Given Abhishek's height, I would say
he would fit in the role even more. Also, he likes basketball a lot."
Bhamara, who hails from Barnala in Punjab, created history
in 2015 by becoming the first Indian to get drafted into NBA, an elite
professional basketball league.
A feature-documentary titled "One in a Billion"
has also been made. It chronicles his journey to become the first Indian-born
basketball player drafted into NBA.
Asked him if he follows Bollywood, he told, "Akshay
Kumar, Abhishek, Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone and Sonam Kapoor are few of
the actors that I love to watch on screen. Salman Khan also does good
movies."
