The official announcement of Yuvraj Singh’s biopic has generated a buzz among fans and the cricketing community. The film, tentatively titled Six Sixes, was revealed on Tuesday through the official social media handles of T-Series Films. This biopic is set to chronicle the extraordinary life of Yuvraj Singh, from his iconic moments on the cricket field to his courageous battle against cancer.
The makers shared the exciting news on Instagram, inviting fans to “Relive the legend’s journey from the pitch to the heart of millions,” highlighting the film’s focus on Yuvraj’s inspiring story of perseverance and triumph. T-Series head Bhushan Kumar, renowned for producing hits like Animal and Kabir Singh, is collaborating with producer Ravi Bhagchandka, who previously produced the acclaimed Sachin Tendulkar documentary Sachin: A Billion Dreams, to bring this story to the big screen.
One of the most anticipated scenes in the biopic is expected to be the recreation of Yuvraj’s legendary feat of hitting six consecutive sixes in a single over against England’s Stuart Broad during the 2007 T20 World Cup. This moment, among others, solidified Yuvraj’s status as a cricketing legend.
The announcement drew widespread excitement from fellow cricketers and fans alike. Suresh Raina, Kedar Jadhav, Irfan Pathan, Shikhar Dhawan, and Harbhajan Singh were among the many who congratulated Yuvraj on social media, expressing their eagerness to see his inspiring story on the big screen.
Fans also flooded the comments with admiration, referring to Yuvraj as a “SIXER KING” and praising his story as one of a “fighter, warrior, and World Cup hero.”
The biopic is expected to cover significant milestones in Yuvraj’s career, including his crucial role in India’s 2011 World Cup victory, where he was named player of the series. His battle with cancer in 2011, followed by his remarkable comeback to cricket in 2012, will likely be a focal point of the film. Yuvraj, who retired from international cricket in 2019, remains an enduring symbol of resilience and excellence, and his biopic is set to inspire millions.
