    Are sports biopics gaining more popularity than others?

    Sports biopics have, now, become the flavor of the season in Bollywood. It started with 'Chak De India,' which was a true story made on the life of Mir Ranjan Negi, the coach of Indian women's hockey team, who led a team of girls to soaring heights. Subsequently, Paan Singh Tomar, Mary Kom and the movie of the millennium, Dangal were made.
