Rakesh Sharma Biopic: After Sushant Singh Rajput & Shah Rukh Khan, Farhan Akhtar Comes On Board To Play The Titular Role

The much talked about biopic of Wing commander Rakesh Sharma has been in news for as long as two years. This film was announced with Aamir Khan in the titular role in 2018, but the actor dropped out subsequently because of his dream project ‘Mahabharat’.

This film later went on to the other Khan, Shah Rukh Khan. Who reportedly had even started his prep for the Rakesh Sharma Biopic. While there were reports about the film going on floors in February 2019, three months earlier than the schedule, there came a twist in the tale. Shah Rukh Khan dropped out of the film as he was not sure about doing another film which would send him to space after the debacle of ‘Fan’.

This ambitious Rakesh Sharma biopic titled, ‘Saare Jahaan Se Acchha’ then went on to many actors like Salman Khan, Ranbir Kapoor, Vicky Kaushal and also late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, but nothing ever materialised. Now, according to the reports in Mumbai Mirror, we have learnt that there is finally another actor on board and that is non-other than Farhan Akhtar.
