]]> Bollywood director Anand L Rai is all set to direct a biopic on Indian chess grandmaster Viswanathan Anand.

Trade Analyst Taran Adarsh took to Twitter to share the news. He wrote, “ a biopic on chess grandmaster #ViswanathanAnand has been planned The biopic not titled yet will be directed by Aanand L Rai Produced by Sundial Entertainment [Mahaveer Jain] and Colour Yellow Productions [Aanand L Rai].”

The makers of the biopic are yet to make a formal announcement. The title and cast of the film haven’t been announced yet.

Commenting on Taran Adarsh’s tweet, netizens suggested names of actors who they feel are best suited to portray Viswanathan Anand on screen.

“@juniorbachchan shoud do it, he also looks like Vishy,” commented a user suggesting Abhishek Bachchan’s name to play the Chess grandmaster.

A user suggested “Scam 1992″ actor Pratik Gandhi’s name for Anand’s role.

Another user felt actor Gulshan Devaiah would be perfect for the role.

Anand L Rai will also be producing the project along with Mahaveer Jain’s Sundial Entertainment. Rai is currently shooting for Atrangi Re in Delhi with Dhanush, Akshay Kumar and Sara Ali Khan.

The five-time world champion celebrated his 51st birthday on December 11. “Thanks everyone for your wishes. Had a quiet day with my family. Of course it included a chocolate cake (made by Aruna and Akhil),” Anand tweeted from his official Twitter account on Friday

]]> Vijay Sethupathi walked out of Muttiah Muralitharan’s biopic ‘800’ due to societal pressure. But the issue is far from over as trolls issued raped threats to the actor’s daughter on social media. Soon after the actor announced he is quitting biopic of SriLankan cricketer, a twitter user made a distasteful remark of raping his minor daughter so that the actor would understand the pain of Eelam Tamils.

Many users slammed the troll and reported the user. The Twitter account has been restricted now.

Singer Chinmayi Sripaada took to Twitter to condemn the troll’s behaviour and tagged Chennai Police. She shared a screenshot of the troll’s distasteful comment and wrote, “A Tamil man who expresses his difference of opinion. This is why they stand in support of sexual crimes in the society. Is nobody in this system going to change this? A man who can say in public about raping a child is a criminal.”

Fondly called Makkal Selvan (son of the people), Sethupathi had been in the midst of controversies as politicians and Tamil Eelam supporters in Tamil Nadu were against him when he decided to play the Srilankan spinner in the biopic.

The film is in the midst of the controversy due to Muttiah Muralitharan’s comments in favour of the Sri Lankan Civil War that killed thousands of Eelam Tamils.

Recently a man who issued rape threats to cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s daughter was arrested by the cops.
