Known for his film 'Khiladi 786,' producer Rakesh Upadhyay now wishes to make a film on the life of Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan.

According to sources, Rakesh recently met Imran at his Bani Gala home to seek permission for the biopic, which was granted to him, reports the Express Tribune.

Earlier, the producer's visit was misreported as a collaboration with the former cricketer's wife Reham Khan for a film, but clarifying the purpose of his visit Rakesh said, "I'd like to clarify that I am not producing any movie with Reham Khan. Although I do want to work in Pakistani film industry in near future.
