Manav Kaul to play Parineeti Chopra's coach in 'Saina' movie

Mumbai : Three months have passed when the news came that Parineeti Chopra has replaced Shraddha Kapoor in Saina Nehwal's biopic.

Parineeti Chopra has been practising hard for the role for a long time now; the biopic is set to go on floors in the month of October this year.

In a latest, director Amol Gupte has also finalised the actor who will play the role of her coach in the movie. It has been learned that Manav Kaul will be playing the on screen coach of Saina.

Talking about it, a source stated to Mumbai Mirror, "Amole and his team felt that Manav would suit the role. He has begun prep and the research for his role. The film is expected to go on the floors in October."

Earlier, Parineeti spoke about the prep to a tabloid, "Prep usually starts early because we have booked courts in slots when there are no distractions of any kind. We start at 6 am and wind up by 8 am. I will have to live this regimented life for the next nine months, but I am pretty kicked about it. I want to do justice to the film and to Saina."

Parineeti also announced that, "Hi everyone, we have NOT started the shoot of #Saina yet. I am still learning how to play Badminton! We will start in October once I get better at it!! 4 MONTHS TO GO! #Saina @TSeries"
