Deepika on Wednesday was seen at the airport with a medical bandage on her neck. She got injured during the shooting for Padmaavat. Irrfan was in Chandigarh for film’s shooting, but now he will be staying back in Mumbai for his treatment.
The film is a biopic and is based on the life of mafia queen Rahima Khan aka Sapna Didi, which is adapted from Hussain Zaidi’s book Mafia Queens of Mumbai.
Irrfan-Deepika starter will be bankrolled by T Series, Vishal Bhardwaj Pictures, and KriArj Entertainment.
