MUMBAI: Star javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra created history by becoming the second Indian to win an individual gold at Olympics. Among others, Bollywood also congratulated him. Filmmaker Mila Zaveri took to his Instagram to heap praises on him, and his post garnered a lot of buzz on social media.
Sharing a picture of the athlete, he wrote, "Congrats @neeraj____chopra for the historic gold!!! Bharat Mata ki Jai! Every indian salutes you!!! Btw just wanna say that @sidmalhotra and you look like twins! Biopic ho jaaye!!!"
Have a look.
Netizens also took to the comments section to react to Neeraj's resemblance to Sidharth Malhotra.
A user commented: "Ekdum sahi pakade hai @milapzaveri sir please jaldi se rights lelo Biopic ka."
"I literally thought it was Sid," wrote another.
A comment read: "Oh my god... Sir just go for it."
But, much to the disappointment of fans, Sidharth isn't Neeraj's choice for his biopic.
In 2018, the star javelin thrower had said that he would like Randeep Hooda, who is also from Haryana, to play the lead role if a biopic is made on him. He had also said that he likes Akshay Kumar.
Neeraj won the country's seventh medal and first gold at Tokyo Olympics. He produced a throw of 87.58 m in the finals.
