A
biopic
on
acclaimed
social
entrepreneur,
Revathi
Roy,
is
in
the
making.
The
film
will
be
co-produced
by
John
Abraham,
Robbie
Grewal
and
Anil
Bohra.
Revathi
started
Asia's
first
all
women
taxi
service
'Hey
Deedee',
and
the
first
all
women
last
mile
delivery
service.
Making
the
announcement,
John
said
in
a
statement,
"I'm
very
happy
that
we
are
producing
this
very
upbeat
story
that
combines
the
best
of
entrepreneurial
twists
with
an
extremely
dramatic
personal
life.
Revathi's
journey
is
that
of
a
vivacious,
funny,
full
of
life,
spirited
woman
who
despite
all
odds
has
risen
like
a
phoenix
and
has
been
continuously
working
towards
empowering
underprivileged
women."
The
biopic
will
be
directed
by
Robbie
Grewal,
and
is
currently
in
the
pre-production
stage.
Revathi's
life
has
been
nothing
short
of
inspirational.
Having
decided
early
in
her
life
that
her
staff
would
consist
of
women
who
were
below
poverty
line,
she
eventually
made
it
to
the
Fortune
India's
Most
Powerful
Women
of
2019
list.
"Revathi's
life
is
full
of
crests
and
troughs
and
dramatic
twists
and
turns.
We
usually
see
stories
about
how
people
rise
from
rags
to
riches;
Revathi
went
from
riches
to
rags
to
a
revolution!
It
is
an
honour
to
be
able
to
tell
the
story
of
such
an
heroic
and
courageous
woman," says
director
Robbie.
Revathi
is
happy
that
John,
Robbie
and
Anil
have
come
together
to
tell
a
story
which
she
says,
is
not
just
her
own,
but
of
every
woman
who
was
given
a
chance.
