Cricket and Bollywood have a long running relationship since decades. Several Indian cricketers starting from veteran like Syed Kirmani, Sandeep Patil and Sunil Gavaskar to new generation cricketers like Salil Ankola, Vinod Kambli and even Ajay Jadeja have acted in Bollywood films.

Now, the latest entry to Bollywood from Indian cricket team is our master blaster Sachin Tendulkar. The leading cricketer of the decade will be seen in Vidhu Vinod Chopra film called Ferrari Ki Sawari, which will be directed by Rajesh Mapuskar.

The record breaking cricketer will be seen in an important role in this movie and his co-stars will be comedy specialists like Sharman Joshi and Boman Irani, as quoted by a crew member.

However, producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra is in no mood to disclose anything about this movie. While in Lage Raho Munnabhai, the filmmaker kept the term 'Gandhigiri' a well wrapped secret, here in this film, he is keeping the length of Sachin's role a secret.

Earlier this year, the cricketer had tweeted about this movie of Vinod Chopra and said that he found the script awesome. Later, he also posted a photo of him with Vidhu Vinod Chopra.

There is a buzz that leading Bollywood stars like Aamir Khan, Shah Rukh Khan and Ranbir Kapoor were also considered to essay a part in this movie.

The dialogues of the film will be written by director Raj Kumar Hirani and the script will be penned by Chopra and Mapuskar.

The film tells the story of a boy, who dreams to play at the Lord's cricket ground after watching the Ferrari of a cricket legend.
