Here’s why Ranveer Singh won’t perform at IPL opening ceremony
Ranveer Singh, who was last seen in the Sanjay Leela Bhansali film Padmaavat, was supposed to perform at the inaugural ceremony of 11th edition of the Indian Premier League. However, the actor won’t be shaking a leg at the event to avoid aggravating a shoulder injury. Ranveer had injured his shoulder during a football match. He has been strictly advised by doctors to avoid performing at the cricket tournament's opening ceremony on April 7.
His spokesperson informed about it saying that despite injury, the actor will continue shooting for Zoya Akhtar’s film."Ranveer Singh has injured his shoulder during a football match and has been advised not to overstrain it for at least one month. Ranveer is, however, not taking any breaks and will continue shooting for 'Gully Boy' as per schedule," the spokesperson said in a statement.
"After multiple medical checkups, the doctors have strongly advised Ranveer Singh not to perform at this year's IPL opening ceremony in which he was doing the grand finale act. They feel his high-energy performance would only overstrain his shoulder and aggravate the injury," the actor's spokesperson said in a statement.
However, Ranveer's film shoot has not been disrupted.
"Ranveer will continue to shoot for 'Gully Boy' as per its shooting schedule which is not physically strenuous since only performance-based talkie scenes are left to be shot," the spokesperson added.
According to the statement, "the actor is in consultation with the doctors and who will advise him, in a day or two, on whether he would able to perform at this year's IPL opening ceremony in which he is doing the finale act.
