In
2017,
Ek
Thi
Daayan
director
Kannan
Iyer
had
announced
a
biopic
on
ace
shooter
Abhinav
Bindra
with
Harsh
Varrdhan
Kapoor
essaying
the
role
of
the
Olympic
gold-medallist
and
Anil
Kapoor
playing
his
dad.
Last
year
in
February,
the
film
finally
hit
the
shooting
floors.
Anil
had
shared
a
picture
with
son
Harshvardhan
and
Abhinav
Bindra
and
written,
"The
beginning." Since
then,
we
haven't
heard
any
new
update
on
this
sports
film.
Amid
this,
there
are
strong
whispers
in
the
tinsel
town
that
this
film
has
been
shelved.
As
per
a
report
in
Spotboye,
Abhinav
Bindra
biopic
might
have
been
put
on
hold
as
of
now,
as
Anil
and
Harsh
Varrdhan
have
now
moved
to
another
project.
It
was
recently
reported
that
Anil
and
Harsh
Varrdhan
were
shooting
for
actor-turned-director
Raj
Singh
Choudhary's
film
Thar
in
Rajasthan.
The
Netflix
film
also
stars
Dangal
girl
Fatima
Sana
Shaikh
in
a
prominent
role.
Coming
back
to
Abhinav
Bindra
biopic,
Harsh
Varrdhan
had
earlier
mentioned
in
an
interview
that
the
film
will
be
a
game
changer.
He
had
also
expressed
his
excitement
about
playing
the
ace
shooter
in
an
Instagram
post
that
read,
"Beginnings
are
very
special.
Especially
when
you
get
to
play
a
character
that
has
made
the
nation
proud
on
world
stage.
I
am
stoked
to
have
been
chosen
to
play
Abhinav
Bindra
and
hopefully
will
do
justice
to
the
man,
the
legend!
Like
the
man
himself
said
"Hard
Work
is
a
talent."
Harsh
Varrdhan
had
recently
made
a
guest
appearance
in
his
father
Anil
Kapoor's
AK
Vs
AK
which
premiered
on
Netflix
last
year.
Talking
about
Anil's
upcoming
projects,
the
actor
will
also
be
seen
in
Raj
Mehta's
Jug
Jugg
Jeeyo
co-starring
Varun
Dhawan,
Kiara
Advani
and
Neetu
Kapoor.
