A source at the premiere of the new three-part HBO Max doc, “Alex vs. ARod,” told Page Six that the project’s co-director, Gotham Chopra “is a massive Red Sox fan, therefore he hates the Yankees and always hated A-Rod. But Alex trusted him with this doc.”

Another guest said that Rodriguez won over the Boston-born director.

The film was created by Religion of Sports, co-founded by Chopra (the son of famed new age whiz Deepak Chopra), along with NFL greats turned broadcasters Tom Brady and Michael Strahan.

We hear that during a Q&A at the NYC screening, there was a humorous moment when the former third baseman was asked a “touchy feely” question, we hear, and he responded, “I am in this doc, but you should not be listening to me for mental health advice, please, please please.”

Said a spy, “It was very funny.”

The warts and all story — which debuts Nov. 6 and was co-directed by Erik LeDrew — is being called a raw and authentic look at the polarizing baseball legend.
