After ‘Dhurandhar’, Sara Arjun tipped to play Madhubala in biopic

Sara Arjun, who recently gained widespread attention for her performance in ‘Dhurandhar’, is reportedly in line to portray legendary actress Madhubala in an upcoming biographical film.

Industry sources indicate that Arjun has emerged as the leading choice for the role, with early discussions said to be progressing positively. While no official announcement has been made, the project is understood to be in active development, with casting decisions expected to be finalised in the coming months.

The biopic aims to explore Madhubala’s life both on and off screen, tracing her rise during the golden era of Hindi cinema and the personal challenges that shaped her career. The role is considered one of the most demanding portrayals of an Indian screen icon, requiring a balance of emotional depth, period authenticity and the ability to capture Madhubala’s distinctive presence.

Sara Arjun’s recent acclaim has reportedly strengthened confidence in her ability to take on the part, though the production team has not yet confirmed her involvement. Preparatory work, including look tests and research sessions, is expected to begin once the casting is officially locked.
