After impressing the audience with his performance in Rocketry, R Madhavan will be back with another biopic. The actor will play the role of Miracle Man G D Naidu, who is known as the 'Edison Of India'.

Announcing the film and unveiling the poster, the production house Mediaone Global Entertainment Ltd wrote, "Mediaone Global Entertainment Limited signed with GD Naidu charities to make a Biopic on the life and achievements of Miracle man #GDNaidu with @ActorMadhavan as the lead."

In the poster, we can be seen a balding man with his back towards the camera and a car in a garage. For the unversed, GD Naidu was an inventor, engineer and businessman. He is known for manufacturing India’s first electric motor.

It was earlier reported that R Madhavan is in talks to star in C Sankaran Nair’s biopic along with Akshay Kumar.

According to Pinkvilla, the biopic will be set in the era of 1920s and 1930s and Akshay has started shooting for the film. The report further suggested that R Madhavan has joined the star cast as well.

“R Madhavan has often associated himself with content-driven films and characters that require him to push the envelope. He was taken aback by the script of the C Sankaran Nair Biopic and decided to come on board the film. He plays the role of a lawyer, whose character traits are based on a person from that era,” a source close to the development was quoted as saying by Pinkvilla.

The source added, "In fact, both Akshay and Madhavan have done multiple script reading sessions too as there is a certain dynamic that they share in the film."

R Madhavan was last seen in 'Dhokha: Round D Corner'. He also starred in the biopic 'Rocketry: The Nambi Effect' which was also premiered at the Cannes Film Festival 2022.
