On discussing the movie with Times of India last year, Harshvardhan said, “Honestly, it was planned to happen even before AK vs. AK and Thar” (the recent projects he starred in). As you can see… Despite producing two films in the interim, we were unable to begin production on the Abhinav Bindra biography. Just an enormous amount of responsibility. On the big screen, it’s like acting out a real-life situation.
Also, he has stated, “The plot spans a period of 15-20 years. The production values, attention to detail, and other factors must be accurate. We traveled to Rajasthan and shot for two months for a project like Thar. and completed it in one sitting. In Mumbai, we shot AK vs. AK in 20 days in this manner. But it’s a big movie. You must be completely certain, and everyone involved in the project must be in agreement.
Harshvardhan will play the expert shooter in the biography, and Anil Kapoor will play Abhinav’s father. The autobiography of Abhinav, A Shot at History: My Obsessive Quest to Olympic Gold and Beyond, is being adapted for the big screen. Harshvardhan Kapoor expressed his joy about working on the biopic on Instagram in September 2017.
