Janhvi Kapoor’s preparation for the role
The tentative release date of the movie is 7th October this year. Bollywood has made many cricket-related drama movies that have done well at the box office but this movie seems to have an added element of a female cricketer. Rajkumar Rao has previously starred in a cricket-related drama movie called Kai Po Che with the late Sushant Singh Rajput.
