It's all speculation: Sonakshi on Deepa Malik biopic

Explore Business Standard

Actor Sonakshi Sinha has said the reports of her doing a biopic on Paralympic champion Deepa Malik are just "speculations".
There were rumours that Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar are planning to make a biopic on Malik, who became the first Indian woman to win a medal at the Paralympic Games when she bagged a silver in shot put F 53 at the Rio Paralympics in 2016.
"It's all speculation right now. I am not the kind of person who would talk about a film until I've signed on the dotted line. People can speculate what they want to but when my films have to be announced, the right people will do it," Sonakshi told PTI.
When asked if she would be interested in doing the biopic, the actor said, "I'd be interested in doing a good story, something which challenges me and has a great role for me."
"I feel so happy and excited that these three diverse films are coming in the same year, back to back. I am thrilled."
"It has been the best ten years of my life, the most fruitful, exciting and informative. It has been such a fantastic learning experience that I don't even feel I've completed a decade."
The actor, 32, said female artistes do have a pressure to look presentable all the time but earlier "it used to be a whole lot more."
