Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan says for his biopic rather than choosing any other actor, he would prefer either of his sons Aryan and AbRam to take on the leading role.
	From a forthcoming tell-all film on actor Sanjay Dutt to Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni's story on celluloid, biopics are the latest fad in Bollywood.
	So, when Shah Rukh was asked about the idea of his biopic, he joked, "I want Sachin Tendulkar to play me," before adding, "I don't know if my life is interesting enough to be made into a film. All the names, (whose biopics are upcoming), are wonderful and colourful lives. I don't if I am good enough."
	On who would be his choice to play him on screen, Shah Rukh said, "I think whichever director will want to make a film on me, will decide who he wants to cast. I can't be that self-obsessed that I go on deciding who should play me, though Aryan and AbRam could be the choices."

	In a series of tweets earlier this month, Jaju had said the 33-year-old "Quantico" star tried to commit suicide thrice during her struggling days, including in 2002 after the death of her alleged former boyfriend Aseem Merchant's mother.
	"This is utter... First of all, it's so sad that Indian media has given credibility to the man, who was in jail because of harassing me, without checking the history who the person is. So, I have nothing to say because there is no credibility to this person, who media is giving credibility to," she told PTI.
