Sonakshi Sinha signs Haseena Parkar’s biopic!

It continues to rain biopics in Bollywood. The latest to join the bandwagon is actress Sonakshi Sinha, who has been roped in by director Apoorva Lakhia for Haseena Parkar biopic.

Haseena Parkar is the sister of underworld don Dawood Ibrahim, who passed away after suffering from a massive heart attack in July last year. The biopic has been titled ‘Haseena – The Queen of Mumbai’.

“Mumbai underworld don Dawood Ibrahim has 12 siblings. Haseena aapa was a very complex personality . I have just picked up the threads of her journey and knitted together the tapestry of her life. I was approached by Sameer Antulay with the idea and Mubina, Sonakshi and I are all set to bring her story alive” director Apoorva Lakhia was quoted as saying to Times Of India.

Sonakshi will be playing the title role.

“It’s a great script, a powerful role, a very intriguing story and an opportunity to play a character who is the polar opposite of me. I have always wanted to be a part of a biopic and this is the perfect one. It’s going to be extremely challenging for me and I am looking forward to it.” the actress said.

Haseena Parkar is the seventh child of Ibrahim Kaskar and Amina Bi. She was considered to be one of the most powerful women in Mumbai.

In the past, the industry has been criticised for making a hero out of underworld dons and with a biopic on Dawood Ibrahim’s sister, Bollywood’s obsession with the underworld continues.

  • Good to see Sona mam opting for a biopic rather than craps she has been doing like Tevar,AJ!!
    She’s definitely a good actress,she was unbelievably lovable in Lootera,one of the finest performances by a female lead in recent years.
    All the best Sona mam!

  • it’s at list good for her to do some good movie she is always doing a crapy masla movie and she is not good actress too.

  • Bollywood has made some brilliant movies on underworld such as Satya, Company and Shootout At Lokhandwala . I have never heard anything about Haseena Kaskar . I hope Sonakshi has learnt her lesson and she will not do masala movies any more . Akira and Haseena Biopic these are the 2 movies which are really important in Sonakshi’s career . Because both these movies are women oriented and Performance oriented . If both these movies becomes successful then Sonakshi can make a strong comeback but if both these movies are failures then i think it will be very difficult for Sonakshi to make a comeback . Let’s hope for the best .

  • Akira and now Haseena Biopic now i can believe Sona she have 2 Goods movies actually 3 Dabanng 3 including.

    Sona has a chance to become in a same line with Kangana and Deepika.

  • Dabangg 3 is all set to release on EID 2017

  • I only love him too much in Dabangg after that i started to hate her too much due to films like joker,Bullet raja, R Rajkumar,Tevar and other films he has to do some female oriented films to establish his career
