Talking about the purpose of his travel, the former President of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) was quoted by News 18 saying, “I will be in Mumbai for several works. There are discussions regarding the script of the biopic.”

He further elaborated, “I am writing the script myself. The screenplay will be discussed with Luv Production House. For several months, the work of making the biopic did not progress much. In fact, due to my and the production house’s tight schedule, the work was not picking up pace. This time, it will be done quickly.”

Speaking of its casting, Ganguly said, “No final decision has been taken. I hope we can share something positive after the meeting.” Meanwhile, when asked about the release date, the former left-handed batsman added, “All this has not been finalised yet.
