Sangeeta Bijlani Azhar

The wait for much awaited biopic on cricketer Mohammad Azharuddin is over. The film starring Emraan Hasmi in titular role hits the screen today. The film chronicles the rise and fall of Azharuddin in the realm of sports. The film also stars actress Prachi Desai as Azharuddin's first wife Naureen and Nargis Fakhri as his second wife Sangeeta Bijlani

There were reports that Azharuddin's former wife Sangeeta Bijlani and popular cricketer Manoj Prabhakar are set to sue the makers of the film for showing them in a bad light once the film releases

"That's completely wrong. Even Azhar bhai was a bit concerned about that. She didn't say anything of that sort to the press but some paper had carried it, which is baseless," said Emraan Hashmi

Emraan Hashmi will play the role of Azharuddin in an upcoming biopic, but what made headlines more than the actor's preparations were speculations on who will play his second wife

"She fits the bill in terms of looks, style and glamour," said a source close to the film
