Ever
since
it
was
announced
that
Parineeti
Chopra
would
be
playing
the
role
of
ace
badminton
player
Saina
Nehwal
on
screen
in
her
biopic,
fans
were
eagerly
waiting
to
see
what
the
actress
would
be
'serving'
them
in
reel.
Well,
the
wait
is
finally
over
as
the
makers
of
Saina
have
unveiled
the
much
anticipated
teaser
of
the
film
today
(March
4,
2021).
The
teaser
begins
with
Parineeti's
character
Saina
pointing
out
how
half
of
the
Indian
population
comprises
of
females
who
are
married
off
at
the
age
of
18
with
nothing
left
to
their
life
story.
However,
she
further
adds,
"Lekin
mere
saath
aisa
nahi
hua,
karchi-tawe
ke
badle
mein
pakdi
maine
talwar."
This
is
followed
by
visuals
of
how
the
young
girl
toiled
hard
to
become
Saina
Nehwal
that
we
know
of
today.
From
the
physical
aspects
like
the
mole
on
Saina's
face
to
her
signature
hairstyle,
Parineeti
is
a
spitting
image
of
the
ace
shuttler
in
her
biopic.
The
actress
shared
the
teaser
on
her
Twitter
page
and
wrote,
"SAINA
