Filmmaker Kabir Khan, who is looking forward to the release of his documentary Roar of the Lion from Wednesday on Hotstar, has described it as a classic tale of triumph of the human spirit. Interacting with the media at the special screening of the Roar along with writer Kausar Munir here on Tuesday, Khan said: "This story is amazing."

The story is about how a bunch of men in yellow jerseys wrote one of India's greatest comeback stories under the leadership of M.S. Dhoni. But the filmmaker said on Tuesday: "It's not about cricket. I think you can take away cricket and replace it with kabaddi. It's the story that stands through."
