Harshvardhan Kapoor to start shooting for Abhinav Bindra biopic

Harshvardhan Kapoor

After wrapping up the shoot of the vigilante drama, Bhavesh Joshi, Harshvardhan Kapoor is set to start shooting for the biopic based on Olympic shooting champ Abhinav Bindra. Written by Abhay Korane and directed by Kannan Iyer, the film (tentatively titled Bindra) is based on the book, A Shot At History: My Obsessive Journey to Olympic Gold. Yesterday, Harsh took to his social networking site and wrote, "For someone who has chased perfection all his life, Abhinav Bindra can be a hard man to please to some. But I think he's happy with the writing. We are being as real to his story as possible. It was surreal to watch him listen to the cinema adaptation of his own story. We've been working on the script for the last six to eight months to make sure everything is authentic. Shoot begins fall 2018 (sic)."
