Mumbai: Actor Shraddha Kapoor is reportedly set to portray Madhuri Jain Grover in an upcoming biopic on Ashneer Grover, with Aamir Khan expected to play the lead role.
The film is being developed by filmmaker Rahul Mody and is currently in the pre-production stage, according to reports.
Early association with project
Sources indicate that Shraddha Kapoor has been associated with the project since its early stages. It was reportedly decided during initial development that she would take on the role of Madhuri Jain Grover and has since closely followed the evolution of the screenplay.
Story based on BharatPe controversy
The film is expected to chronicle the journey of Ashneer Grover as an entrepreneur, along with the controversies surrounding his exit from BharatPe in 2022.
At the time, allegations had surfaced claiming that Grover and members of his family were involved in the misuse of company funds. Madhuri Jain Grover, who served as Head of Controls at BharatPe, was also terminated during the same period.
Development timeline
Rahul Mody has reportedly been working on the screenplay for nearly three years. He is known for his writing contribution to the film Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety (2018).
The project has gained traction in recent weeks following reports that Aamir Khan has shown strong interest in the script and is likely to headline the film.
Anticipation builds
Industry insiders suggest that the subject matter—combining entrepreneurship, corporate controversy and personal dynamics—makes the film particularly relevant to contemporary audiences.
However, an official announcement from the makers is still awaited, and casting details have not yet been formally confirmed.
Conclusion
If finalised, the casting of Shraddha Kapoor alongside Aamir Khan could add significant star power to the biopic. With its focus on a high-profile business figure and recent controversies, the film is already generating considerable buzz ahead of its official announcement.
