Salman Khan gears up for first biopic film, To play ‘Ravindra Kaushik’: India’s best spy

After impressing the audiences with his entertaining performances, be it a cop or the dutiful son, superstar Salman Khan has always given the audience a movie to remember.

After a career spanning more than 30 years, Salman is now all set to do a biopic film for the first time ever. As per reports, the actor will be the character of Ravindra Kaushik, who is regarded as the Best Indian Spy, in director Rajkumar Gupta's next film.

Based on true story from the Indian History, Salman Khan will be seen playing the flamboyant Indian spy, Ravindra Kaushik, popularly known as Black Tiger in the action triller film, reports Pinkvilla.

The report also quoted a source as saying:

“It’s a film based on the life of Indian spy, Ravindra Kaushik. He is famously known as Black Tiger and is regarded as India’s best spy ever. Rajkumar Gupta has been researching on his life for last 5 years and he has finally managed to lock a screenplay that does justice to the achievements and legacy of Ravindra Kaushik. He narrated this to Salman, who has already agreed in principle to do the film. It's among the most heroic and shocking stories from the Indian Intelligence history.”

Reportedly, Salman will start filming after completing Sajid Nadiadwala’s film. This is the first time the actor will be playing a real life character on screen and while it was the general belief that the film would be titled Black Tiger, that’s not the case. The makers are on the look out for a new title and as the film is set in the era of 70s and 80s, the team has also done extensive research to recreate that era.
