But then the legendary Fearless Nadia's family put its collective feet down. Nothing was heard of the project thereafter.
Now Sohail Khan has been offered a chance to make a film on the queen of stunts.
Sohail says he would tackle the bio-pic only if and when his producers get Nadia's family's approval. `I'll take up this project only if all the necessary permission and approvals are obtained. There is no point in doing a film on a real-life figure unless the family is with you. `
Shedding light on the project Sohail says, `A producer-friend of mine from Australia approached me with this project a couple of months ago. She's still doing the basic research. And for now I'm totally tied up with my underproduction film. So let's see. `
While it's too early to talk about the casting we can reveal that the Fearless phenomenon won't be essayed by a non-Indian actress.
