<p>Kartik Aaryan said only last year that he will be playing the lead role in a movie directed by acclaimed filmmaker Kabir Khan. The title and release date of this long awaited project were recently revealed, much to the delight of the fans who had been waiting impatiently for further information. The movie, Chandu Champion, is scheduled to appear on television and movie screens in June of the following year. Kartik will play the freestyle swimmer Murlikant Petkar in the movie. Interesting link between the movie and the late actor Sushant Singh Rajput.</p>
<p>After MS Dhoni: The Untold Story’s popularity, insiders in the business have informed ETimes that Sushant Singh Rajput had agreed to collaborate on another sports biopic before he passed away. The idea didn’t have a name at the time, but it was inspired by the inspiring story of physically challenged war veteran and successful athlete Murlikant Petkar. Murlikant Petkar won a gold medal at both the Paralympics in Germany in 1972 and the Commonwealth Games in 1970. According to the article, Sushant showed his intense interest in the sportsman’s tale in 2016 and was enthralled from the minute it was told to him. The late actor was motivated by Murlikant Petkar’s drive and commitment to realizing his ambitions.<img decoding=”async” class=”alignnone wp-image-60997″ src=”https://www.theindiaprint.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/www.theindiaprint.com-chandu-champion-a-movie-starring-kartik-aaryan-and-sushant-singh-rajput-have-a-special-relationship-kartik-aaryan-and-sushant-singh-rajput-11zon.png” alt=”” width=”1544″ height=”1041″ srcset=”https://www.theindiaprint.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/www.theindiaprint.com-chandu-champion-a-movie-starring-kartik-aaryan-and-sushant-singh-rajput-have-a-special-relationship-kartik-aaryan-and-sushant-singh-rajput-11zon.png 700w, https://www.theindiaprint.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/www.theindiaprint.com-chandu-champion-a-movie-starring-kartik-aaryan-and-sushant-singh-rajput-have-a-special-relationship-kartik-aaryan-and-sushant-singh-rajput-11zon-150×101.png 150w” sizes=”(max-width: 1544px) 100vw, 1544px” /></p>
