About Shabaash Mithu Movie
Shabaash Mithu is a Hindi biographical sports drama directed by Srijit Mukherji and produced by Viacom18 Studios. The film is based on the life of Mithali Raj, the former captain of India’s women’s national cricket team, and stars Taapsee Pannu in the lead role. It chronicles the highs and lows of Mithali’s cricket journey and her moments of glory.
After the 2017 Women’s Cricket World Cup, Viacom18 Motion Pictures acquired the rights to create a film about Raj’s life. Mithali Raj expressed hope that the movie would inspire more young girls to pursue sports as a career.
The biopic was initially planned to start filming in 2019. Mithali Raj had suggested Priyanka Chopra as a great choice to play her, citing their similar personalities. However, Taapsee Pannu was eventually cast as Mithali in the biopic, titled Shabaash Mithu, which was originally set to be directed by Rahul Dholakia in 2020.
On 3 December 2019, coinciding with Mithali Raj’s birthday, the film was confirmed with Taapsee Pannu in the title role and Rahul Dholakia as the director. Pannu shared training photos from December 2019, January 2020, and January 2021, showcasing her preparation for the role. She trained under Nooshin Al Khadeer, a former cricketer and Mithali Raj’s friend. Although the film was initially slated for release on 5 February 2021, filming was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In June 2021, Srijit Mukherji replaced Rahul Dholakia as the film’s director due to scheduling changes. Principal photography began on 5 April 2021 after further delays. The film was shot at iconic locations like Lord’s Cricket Ground in London, as well as various domestic and international sites, to authentically depict the events of Mithali’s life. Filming was completed on 9 November 2021.
