Australian cricketer Brett Lee is expected to star opposite hot Bollywood beauty Amrita Rao in a Bollywood sports flick.
Former Australian captain Allan Border will also feature in the film as will Mike Hussey and Jason Gillespie. International cricket stars include Simon Jones and Saj Mahmood from England and New Zealand’s Craig McMillan, Daryl Tuffey, Nathan Astle and Martin Crowe.
“I am excited to be making my Bollywood debut in Victory and I’m hopeful playing the role of a cricketer will come naturally to me,” said Lee.
The film, titled Victory, is to be directed by TVC director Ajit Pal and will be presented by power-house distributors Adlabs, with shooting to commence in Australia in January during the India – Australia series.
Harman Baweja is expected to co-star while Anupam Kher and Gulshan Grover will also feature.
