Arjun Kapoor would love to do a biopic of a person with an underdog story. With the film industry cashing in on the biopic trend right now, the actor who recently joined an Indian football league bandwagon as co-owner of a franchise, was asked if he would like to work in any of them.

“So many biopics are in the making right now and so many are already made. I would like to do an underdog story. I think those are the most exciting biopics. I really can't name anyone off hand like this, but I hope we have some footballer coming through our teams in ISL, which I would love to emulate at some point and maybe play a footballer star or such a character,” the actor replied. Kapoor said a biopic of a sportsperson will be exciting if it brings out a different facet of the person.

“I think biopic should bring out a different facet of someone's life. Then only it becomes interesting. Yuvraj Singh is a very extraordinary man, the way his journey has been, the ups and downs of his life, then there is Sourav Ganguly, the man who defied all odds,” Arjun added. “I am not saying I want to play anyone of them, all I am saying is that if there is a journey, it would be fun to do a biopic.”
