The Pakistan film industry needs to learn a thing or two from its Indian counterpart. After the much hyped biopic (in the making) on cricketer Azharuddin in which Emraan Hashmi will play the cricketer’s part, another film has been planned to pay tribute to a current member of the Indian cricket team M S Dhoni.
Sushant Singh Rajput (Shudh Deshi Romance) is going to play Dhoni’s character for which he is these days preparing hard. Why can’t we, in Pakistan, pay tribute to our living legends? Agreed, Main Hoon Shahid Afridi was a decent effort, but it didn’t directly focus on the cricketer’s achievements.
