A day after Rakhi Sawant’s claim –Javed Akhtar wanted to make a biopic on her– surfaced on the Internet, the veteran lyricist-writer confirmed that he did told her that he’d like to write a film on her life.

In a recent interview, Rakhi claimed that Javed Akhtar had reached out to her to discuss a film based on her life but she couldn’t meet him.

Now, Javed Akhtar has also confirmed that Rakhi’s claim is true. “No, she is right. I think some four or five years back we were on the same flight and she told me about her childhood and I did tell her that someday I would like to write a script based on her life,” Javed Akhtar told a leading digital portal.

“I got a call from Javed Akhtar Ji, before Covid, about a year ago. He said that he wanted to write my biopic and had asked to meet him. But after that day, I did not get to meet him. They want a biopic to be made on me, but my biopic will be very controversial and I do not know whether the people of the country would like to see it or not,” Rakhi said.

Meanwhile, Rakhi has been in the news for her antics on Bigg Boss and her mother being in the hospital.

When asked which actress could play her onscreen, Rakhi took Alia Bhatt’s name. She added, “I don’t know if they will cast me or cast Alia, or Priyanka Chopra. I love myself but if I don’t do it, then Alia can do or any best actresses like Deepika Padukone, Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor Khan can do as all are number one actresses and are my favourites.”

Well, who would you like to see play Rakhi Sawant?
