Digital Desk: Sukesh Chandrasekhar's life and case have received a lot of media attention, partly because of the magnitude of his fraud and partly because of his Bollywood connections. In the case, his rumoured girlfriend Jacqueline Fernandez is a co-accused, and several other Bollywood personalities are either victims or targets. Now, it seems the Sukesh saga is ready to be brought to the big screen.
While the conman is currently in Tihar Jail waging a legal battle in the Rs 200-crore extortion case against him, filmmaker Anand Kumar is pitching and planning to make a film based on Sukesh's life. Tihar’s jailor, ASP Jailor Deepak Sharma, stated that there is huge interest in Sukesh's story and that Anand Kumar visited the prison to gather information about Sukesh.
Reportedly, Anand Kumar recently flew down to the capital and met with ASP Deepak Sharma for a brief meeting to know more about Sukesh. Deepak Sharma later took to social media and shared a photo with the filmmaker. A source close to Anand confirmed that the filmmaker is gathering "crucial and untold information" about the case and Sukesh's life.
According to reports, the filmmaker has reserved a hotel in the city for the next six months, where a team of writers will be stationed to work on this project. However, no information about the cast or possible release date has been released. According to rumors, Anand Kumar plans to release the film in late 2024 or early 2025.
Sukesh Chandrashekhar is accused of extorting money from politicians, celebrities, and business owners, as well as defrauding pharma firm Ranbaxy's previous owner Shivinder Mohan Singh's wife Aditi Singh of Rs 200 crore. Jacqueline Fernandez, who was reportedly in a relationship with him prior to his arrest, has been named as a co-accused in the case by the Enforcement Directorate. Nora Fatehi has also been questioned in the case.
