Bollywood’s fascination with underworld has always come up great entertainers. Continuing the chain, yet another film based on Dawood Ibrahim’s sister Haseena Parker is finalized and none other than Bollywood’s leading lady Sonakshi Sinha will play the title role.
Mumbai underworld don Dawood Ibrahim has 12 siblings. His sister Haseena Parkar, who was at the seventh position, lived at Nagpada in Mumbai, was closest to Dawood, but died in 2014 having suffered a heart attack. She has a fascinating story that is now being made into a film, that is being produced by Mubina Rattonsey and directed by Apoorva Lakhia.
We have exclusively learnt that the beautiful actress Sonakshi Sinha has been finalised to play Haseena in the film, titled Haseena The Queen of Mumbai.
Confirming the news, Sonakshi said, “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.”
Apoorva Lakhia said, “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.”
The film that will begin shooting early next year will capture 40 years of Haseena’s life and is the emotional saga of a woman and what it meant to be Dawood Ibrahim’s sister.
