Parineeti Chopra has started preparing for the much talked about Saina Nehwal biopic. Directed by Amol Gupte and will be produced by Bhushan Kumar, Divya Khosla Kumar and Krishan Kumar. Initially, Shraddha Kapoor was supposed to play the celebrated sports star. Chopra said in an interview, “I’m actually quite excited to get into the character of Saina, get into the skin of a world champion because playing a fictional character might not have been as exciting as playing a real character. Here, I have somebody who has extensive documentation on exactly how she plays, who she played every match in her life."
The project is touted to be one of her most challenging roles of her career. Pari has intensified her training and she even shared a moment from her training with her fans on Twitter. Parineeti Chopra Responds to Priyanka Chopra-Nick Jonas Divorce Rumours; Says ‘It Was a Terrible Article’

So, to kind of imbibe that and to kind of learn that is really exciting for me as an actor. I wanted to do a sports biopic for a long time so this project is absolutely perfect.”
