Talking about preparing for the role, Chopra had earlier said in a statement, “I was dying to do a sports-based film. It is a part of my personality as an actor that I have never explored, and I am so happy that I get to portray a strong and powerful girl like Saina. She has put our country on the world map, and I excited to put in all the training and hard work that comes with learning the game of Badminton and portraying Saina on screen.” Saina produced by T-Series’ Bhushan Kumar and Krishan Kumar and Front Foot Pictures’ Sujay Jairaj and Rasesh Shah releases on 26 March.
