| Rakesh Sharma |
Well-known Rakesh Sharma is a former Indian Air Force pilot
who flew aboard Soyuz T-11 in 1984 and is the only Indian citizen to travel in
space. It's appropriate that a biopic is on the works for one of the most celebrated
Indian astronauts of our times.
Firstly, the film titled Salute was offered to Aamir Khan,
who even agreed to be a part of the biopic. But, due to certain differences,
Aamir backed out of the project.
Aamir did bring good buddy Shah Rukh Khan to the picture and
it will indeed be SRK, who will depict the role of Rakesh Sharma in Salute.
Latest reports suggested that Shah Rukh too was backing out
of the project but as per a daily, the actor has already locked his dates for
Salute.
A source disclosed to a daily, "Shah Rukh will begin
prep for the film in September and will shoot for two months straight until
November-end. He will resume shooting in January. The film is expected to
release in 2019 and the makers are presently finalising the leading lady."
Film Salute is being directed by ad filmmaker Mahesh Mathai
and produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur. Salute is slated to release in 2019.
