The success of RRR has catapulted its actors- Ram Charan and Jr NTR - into global stars. Ram Charan has had a special year, with RRR going Oscars and he and his wife Upasana welcoming a baby girl earlier this year. The actor is now being mindful of the roles he chooses.

Earlier, during an event, Ram Charan expressed his desire to do a sports drama and said he would like to play renowned cricketer Virat Kohli on screen.

Rumours have now been doing the rounds that Ram Charan is indeed in talks to play the former Indian Cricket Team captain in the upcoming Virat Kohli biopic.

Ever since the news of Ram Charan being roped in for Kohli's biopic came to light, fans of the actor and the cricketer have been extremely excited. It was reported that a prestigious Bollywood production banner has pitched the idea to the actor, and he has already green-lit the project.
