Earlier, it was reported that R. Madhavan may be cast opposite Aishwarya, and subsequently, it sparked talks that the actress was upset over it as she was keen on Rajkummar instead. But, now we know the real reason. According to a report published in Hindustan Times, Madhavan clarifies “I loved the script and was really keen to be part of an interesting ensemble like Fanney Khan, unfortunately, I couldn’t commit to the project due to date issues. I wish the team of all the luck.”
While the producer of Fanney Khan, Prernaa Arora said, “I think Madhavan is one of the finest actors we have today. I look forward to working with him in the future”.
Talking about his work, the Saala Khadoos actor said, “I have multiple projects waiting to go on the floor, but I have to really wrap my head around the next subject… Chanda Mama Door Ke is next on the cards and then a biopic. It’s a very interesting year ahead and there are a lot of challenges, but I’m just beginning to play the game.”
