Fawad Khan was never considered for Dhoni biopic says producers

As we had reported earlier, it was heard from a source that Pakistani heartthrob Fawad Khan‘s role had been chopped off from the recently released biopic ‘M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story‘ at the last minute. However, dismissing this report the makers of the movie have now given a statement which says that the actor was never considered for the Dhoni biopic.

The official spokesperson from Fox Star Studios has given a statement which says, “Fawad Khan was never part of the film ‘MS Dhoni: The Untold Story’. Even when we were casting the movie, he was not in the consideration set. Dhoni is an extremely realistic biopic and we have been true to that even in our casting.” [sic]
