Aamir, Shraddha in Ashneer Grover biopic?

According to multiple reports, Aamir Khan has shown interest in the Ashneer Grover biopic and has apparently given a go-ahead to the project. Aamir is impressed by the story of BharatPe’s founder and his role in the world of startups. A source informed Bollywood Hungama, “Aamir has read it and loved it; he is doing this film. It’s in the pre-production stage. It’s also very relatable as Ashneer is an extremely popular figure with today’s audience.”

The film will be directed by Rahul Mody, who will be making his debut as a director. Rahul has written films like Pyaar Ka Punchnama, Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, and Tu Jhoothi Main Makkar and is rumoured to be in a relationship with Shraddha Kapoor.
