New Delhi: Late Sushant Singh Rajput starrer film ‘MS Dhoni: The Untold Story’ is set to re-release in cinemas. The film is the biopic of former Indian cricket captain MS Dhoni, under whom India won the 2011 World Cup. The Neeraj Pandey-directed sports biopic is set to re-release in Indian theatres on May 12 in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu.
The film was originally released in 2016 and was one of the blockbusters that year. Talking about the re-release, Bikram Duggal, Head of Studios at Disney Star said that it is a special film for Star Studios and for Indians all over the world as it shows an inspiring journey of India’s most successful cricket captain. He added that the re-release will give another chance to relive the game’s ‘most magical moments’ on the big screen.
Sushant Singh Rajpur passed away on 14 June 2020, when he was found dead in his Mumbai apartment. This will also be a chance for Sushant’s fans to watch him again on the big screen in one of his most successful films.
The film follows MS Dhoni’s journey from being a ticket collector and struggling to get into the Indian team to win the 2011 World Cup. The film captures some important moments in Indian cricket after Dhoni’s debut, including his knock of 183, 2007 T20 World Cup and 2007 World Cup.
The film also stars Kiara Advani, Disha Patani, Anupam Kher, and Bhoomika Chawla. While it was the Bollywood debut for Disha, the film also became a reason for Kiara’s success. ‘MS Dhoni: The Untold Story’ was shot by Sudhir Palsane and was written by Neeraj and Dilip Jha. The film is also available on Disney+ Hotstar.
