Hyderabad: Telangana Congress leader T Jayaprakash Reddy on Thursday said he plans to make a movie based on former All India Congress Committe (AICC) chief Sonia Gandhi's recently released memoir.

Jayaprakash Reddy, also known as Jagga Reddy, said the proposed film would not be a commercial venture.

"We decided to make a picture based on Sonia ji's book. We thought of making it in Telugu, Hindi and all other languages," he told PTI.

Reddy, a former MLA, said he will not seek donations for the film, but it will be made with contributions from about 50 Congress leaders in the Sangareddy constituency he previously represented.

He intends to shoot the film in Delhi and Sriperumbudur in Tamil Nadu, where former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi was assassinated.

Jagga Reddy said a programme in connection with the film will be organised on December 9 this year on the occasion of Sonia Gandhi's birthday, and the film will be released on December 9, 2028.

He added that he would speak to Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy and state Congress president B Mahesh Kumar Goud.
