Talking about the film, Ritesh earlier told PTI, “"It is not a biopic. It is a completely fictional story, but it is set against a real backdrop between 1933-48 India about what the country was, the sports... About hockey. It is not based on any character. We have set it in real events so people (often) confuse it with a biopic. It talks about the era in which we achieved Independence and what happened with sports, (primarily) hockey at that time.” Well, the teaser sure piques our interest and is releasing on August 15 this year.
