I'm sure you all would echo the thought that Irrfan Khan is undoubtedly the greatest actors of our times. And now the buzz is doing the rounds that Marathi filmmaker Pramod Gore keen to rope in Irrfan for his Bollywood project on the late Indian President APJ Abdul Kalam. According to reports, Pramod has bagged the rights to portray the struggles and achievements of Kalam on the big screen. And he is now all set to approach Irrfan to play the protagonist in the biopic. A source says, "Gore visited Kalam's home in Rameswaram where he met his brother to gain insight into the great man's life." According to reports, the film will be titled APJ and the shooting might begin during July-August. A source said, "The makers are planning to release it next year. The director is yet to be finalised, but they are keen to cast Irrfan as Kalam." Director Gore also spoke about the film saying that he has taken the respective permissions to make the film. He said, "There is so much that Kalamji has done for our nation; he is an inspiration for all of us. I travelled all the way to Rameswaram because I want to be thorough and not falter in conveying a story as great as this. Moreover, I had to seek permission from his family before going ahead with the film. I have also bought all of his 22 written works, including Ignited Minds, Wings of Fire, India 2020 and The Kalam Effect as research material. It is not easy to weave an entire life into a two-and-a-half hour film and I want capable hands on board for it. That's why I want to cast Irrfan as Kalam; I think he will be able to do justice to the film."
