7 Bollywood Biopic Movies Which Are A Total “Must Watch”!

Bollywood has seen some great biopics like Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, Mary Kom and Paan Singh Tomar, to name a few. And the success of these films have only motivated our directors to tell more real life stories that deserve to be told.

Dangal

Dangal is surely one of the most-hyped Aamir Khan movies. It tells the story of wrestler Mahavir Singh Phogat who taught wrestling to his daughters. The film has Aamir Khan playing the part of wrestler Mahavir while TV actress Sakshi Tanwar will be seen playing his wife.

Rustom

It is based on the real life incident of Naval Officer K.M. Nanavati.

Dhoni: The Untold Story

Sushant Singh Rajput will be seen as the most celebrated Indian cricket captain, MS Dhoni, in this film. Cricket is a religion in our country and a biopic, helmed by Neeraj Pandey (of Special 26 and Baby fame), on one of the most loved cricketers of India will surely smash all records.
Raees

Raees, starring Shah Rukh Khan, is apparently based on the life of the Gujarati don, Abdul Latif Shaikh. SRK fans have been waiting with bated breath to see King Khan try something new and Raees is their dream come true. The film also stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui in a significant role.

Haseena – The Queen of Mumbai

First it was Sonakshi Sinha, but now Shraddha Kapoor will be seen playing the title role based on the life of don Dawood Ibrahim’s sister, Haseena. Although not much is known about Ibrahim’s sister, the word has it that ‘Haseena aapa’ was a very complex personality. Apoorva Lakhia of Shootout at Lokhandwala fame will direct this film.

Daddy

Arjun Rampal will be seen playing the title character in this biopic of gangster-turned-politician, Arun Gawli. Gawli has been convicted for murder and is currently imprisoned for life. Rampal recently tweeted that he’s growing a beard as part of the preparation for his character in the film.

Manikarnika

Ketan Mehta, the director of Mangal Pandey, will direct this film and has confirmed in an interview that talent powerhouse Kangana Ranaut will essay the title role in this film.
