After helming the biopics of Mary Kom and Sarbjit, filmmaker Omung Kumar Bhandula is now all set to direct another biopic, this time of a marathon runner, Fauja Singh who is famously known as Sikh Superman.
Based on the book Turbaned Tornado by Khushwant Singh, the biopic is titled "Fauja". Apart from directing the movie, Omung Kumar will also be producing it along with Raaj Shaandilyaa, and Kunal Shivdasani.
Fauja Singh is a British Sikh centenarian marathon runner of Punjabi Indian descent. He has beaten a number of world records in multiple age brackets, but none of his times have been ratified as records. His current personal best time for the London Marathon (2003) is 6 hours 2 minutes, and his marathon record, for age 90-plus, is 5 hours 40 minutes at the age of 92, at the 2003 Toronto Waterfront Marathon.
Omung Kumar has previously directed the biopic of boxer Mary Kom who is the only female to become World Amateur Boxing champion for a record six times. Priyanka Chopra portrayed the role of Mary Kom in the movie. The director also helmed, Sarbjit which is based on the life of Sarabjit Singh, an Indian man who was sentenced to death by the Supreme Court of Pakistan in 1991 and who consequently spent 22 years in prison for alleged terrorism and spying.
