Abhishek Chaubey, director of popular films like Ishqiya, Dedh Ishqiya, Udta Punjab and Son Chiriya, is not getting a hero for his next film. Along with this, he has been wanting to make a film on hockey magician Major Dhyanchand since his last film. After Dhyanchand's family spoke to a Jhansi media reporter about the film, Shahrukh Khan's name for the lead role in the film was in full swing, but he flatly denied having any plans for such a film.

Abhishek Chaubey started his career as an assistant to director Vishal Bhardwaj in the film Spider. He was also an assistant director in Maqbool, The Blue Umbrella and Omkara and then got his first chance as a director 10 years ago in the film Ishqiya. His films have been very popular, but his film Son Chidiya released last year was a flop. He has not been able to announce his next film since then. He has read a lot of books on Major Dhyanchand during this time and has also met his family to make a biopic on him.

Dhyanchand's family in Jhansi told that the biopic will be made under the direction of Abhishek and that Shah Rukh and Varun Dhawan are in talks for the lead role in the film. Talking about it, Shahrukh is very busy these days in his other plans. The same close to Abhishek says that he is constantly looking for a big hero for his film, but so far no actor has said yes to his biopic. Abhishek has almost completed the pre-production of the film and according to the family of Dhyanchand, the shooting of this film can start in July this year.
