BJP Leader and former External Affairs Minister, Sushma Swaraj breathed her last on Tuesday, August 6. The passing of the renowned politician has brought grief to many including politicians and prominent personalities from various fields including Sports and Entertainment. Swaraj has been one of the strongest female politicians who stood tall and achieved great heights with her intelligence and talents. She served as the Minister of External Affairs from May 26, 2014, to May 30, 2019. Remembering Sushma Swaraj: Did You Know This John Abraham-Varun Dhawan Starrer Had Once Paid Tribute to Her Dynamic Persona?

She was a remarkable leader who had an illustrious career and was undoubtedly one of the most loved female politicians in India. The former union minister began her political career with Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad in the 1970s. After the Emergency, she joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

While the nation mourns the loss of such as hero, we can't help but wonder if the iconic journey of Swaraj will ever be documented in a film. Considering that biopics have been the flavour of the season for quite some time now in Bollywood, we won't be surprised if soon enough a filmmaker may announce or suggest having an interest in making a film on the life of the BJP leader. In the meantime, we try to look at actresses who could do justice to playing the role of Swaraj who was known to be a fierce politician. Remembering Sushma Swaraj: Life and Times of BJP Stalwart in Pictures.

1. Vidya Balan

Vidya Balan is one actress who gives her 100% to every role and it certainly shows on-screen. To play a role like that of Sushma Swaraj, we need someone who speaks with confidence and can bring immense power on-screen to play this inspirational personality. Balan is one of those few actresses who also gets into the skin of every character, well-enough for us to forget who she is and could be considered to be a great choice for this role.

2. Kajol

She is one of the most talented actresses of her time. Kajol has the potential to perform the most versatile roles and it is a shame that we haven't seen her do something as amazing as playing a powerful political persona on-screen. Kajol can bring the required maturity to this role and we think is a strong contender if the biopic is ever being made.

3. Rani Mukerji

Rani Mukerji has time and again proven that she can play diverse roles be it that of a fierce cop like in Mardaani or a powerful teacher who doesn't let Tourettes stop her from achieving her dream in Hichki. Give Mukerji a challenging role and she will try her best to make it impactful. As Swaraj, Rani Mukerji would be an impressive casting. Sushma Swaraj Passes Away: Anushka Sharma, Karan Johar, Parineeti Chopra and Others Pay their Condolences to the Veteran BJP Leader and Former Minister of External Affairs.

4. Madhuri Dixit Nene

Madhuri Dixit Nene has been a phenomenal actress in her time and we don't see her often now especially in roles that could make you sit up and take notice of her act. She has proven her acting mettle in the past and also played some extremely powerful female characters in films such as Devdas, Mrityudand, Dedh Ishqiya etc. Sushma Swaraj was a prolific orator and an actress like Madhuri could translate that well on-screen.

5. Sonakshi Sinha

Sonakshi may not have given her best Bollywood performance as of yet but could be a great choice for a film like this biopic. Her strong Hindi-language dialogue delivery could work considering one of Sushma Swaraj's best-known trait was also her strong command over the language. Sonakshi boasts of a strong screen presence too which can work in her favour.

Considering a politician like Sushma Swaraj comes only once in a lifetime, it may not be a bad idea to celebrate her achievements and take a look at her journey of becoming India's most powerful female politicians through a film. Tekk us who you would like to see play the role of Swaraj in her biopic.
