Release date of Saina Nehwal biopic announced

Ace Indian badminton player Saina Nehwal took to her social media handle to share the first look poster of her biopic. Titled ‘Saina’, the film has Parineeti Chopra in the lead role, playing the character of the Olympic medalist. It has also been announced that the film will be hitting screens on March 26, 2021.

‘Saina’ is written and directed by Amol Gupte. The film was originally planned with Shraddha Kapoor. The makers had even shared a first look poster featuring her. She had been training hard in badminton under the guidance of Indian team coach Pullela Gopichand. But she had to opt out due to her schedule clashes. Parineeti later stepped in her shoes and worked rigorously to play the shuttler’s role.

Saina Nehwal is the only Indian female badminton player to be ranked as World No 1. Her 2012 Olympic bronze medal win remains a defining moment in Indian sporting history. She has two medals each at the World Championships and Asian Games and has won a total of 5 medals at the Commonwealth Games including 3 gold medals. In the 2018 CWG, she won two gold medals in women’s singles and mixed category. Her inspiring story definitely deserves to be told and the makers will be hoping to do full justice to her incredible achievements.
