Bollywood is always in search of stories. And sizzling Sania is one star it couldn't have ignored for long. She is already a star with millions of fans and has won hearts across the world.

Now the Mumbai film industry has turned its attention towards her. The first movie on Sania Mirza has been planned. Sources say that Umbrella Films, in association with Distant Horizon Films of Los Angeles (United States) have begun work on the script.

The movie is named, 'I for India'. Deepak R Gandhi will be the producer while Hemant Das is the director of the film. The film is not autobiographical though it is clearly inspired by Sania Mirza and her success in a sport that hasn't seen many heroes in India, especially among women.

After many movies based on cricket and the recent hit, Chak De India, that revolved around, hockey, the new movie would touch the glamorous game of tennis. So who will play Sania's role: Eesha Deol, it seems. The names of other stars are yet to be made public.
