Biopics are the flavour of the season in Bollywood. Real-life sagas are being narrated- well almost - as the plot usually has a dollop of fiction too. Sarabjeet Singh's sister, Dalbir Kaur, welcomed the cast of Omung Kumar's Sarbjit (2016) - Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Randeep Hooda and Richa Chadha - into her home. Ditto with the Bhanots, Akhil and Aneesh, who rediscovered the spirit of their braveheart sister, slain PanAm airhostess Neerja Bhanot, when Sonam Kapoor played her part in Ram Madhvani's Neerja (2016).
