Mumbai: Leander Paes' performance on the tennis court has made Vishal Bhardwaj sure that the sportsman will be good on the big screen too! The filmmaker has decided to make a film with the tennis star who is already making his debut with Rajdhani Express.
"What I feel is that he is such a fighter in the game that he will be good on screen too and I am 100 percent sure of that. So, I will write a script for him now," said Bhardwaj at the inauguration of a lawn tennis court here.
Even Paes hopes to work with Bhardwaj, known for films like Maqbool, Kaminey and 7 Khoon Maaf.
"I want to prove that I can act well and hold my movie and give him a realistic opportunity to put me in his movies. I really look forward to that," added the 38-year-old tennis player whose debut Rajdhani Express, directed by Ashok Kohli, also stars Paresh Rawal.
