It wasn’t long before that we had got the news of R. Madhavan being roped in to play the lead in Navdeep Singh’s historical drama opposite Saif Ali Khan.
And just a few days back, Maddy had posted that he has got a shoulder injury and is hospitalized for that. Well, the actor has still not been recovered from this injury and is advised to rest.
Owing to which the actor won’t be able to shoot for this untitled film with Saif Ali Khan. Also, Madhavan had opted out of Ranveer Singh starrer Simmba because of the same reason.
