Revealed: Has Fawad Khan played any part in MS Dhoni biopic?

There have been reports that Pakistani actor Fawad Khan has played the role of Virat Kohli in the MS Dhobi’s biopic “MS Dhoni- The Untold Story”. A host of stars have been speculated to play the roles of various cricketers prior to the release of the movie which includes rumors like Fawad Khan, Gautam Gulati and Ram Charan to play the role of three famous Indian cricketers.

However, when the movie was released last week only one Indian cricketer was portrayed apart from MS Dhoni and that is Yuvraj Singh as Herry Tangri has got a good review from all the critics in the way he played the role in the movie with the scene becoming the talk of the town.

Earlier reports suggested that Fawad Khan was very much part of the movie as he portrayed Virat Kohli in MS Dhoni- The Untold Story as he has shot his scenes with Sushant Singh.

The reports also confirmed that he has an important part which depicts Virat Kohli’s relationship with MS Dhoni but the role was scrapped one-week ahead of the release as the role was scrapped due to the tensions between India and Pakistan off late post-Uri attacks.

However, PTI reports that Fawad Khan was never a part of the movie despite the rumors making rounds. “Fawad Khan was never part of the filmMS 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,” Fox Star Studios spokesman said in a statement.

MS Dhoni- The Untold Story has set new benchmarks for biopic genre movies as it has earned praises from fans and critics alike since its release on 30th September. The Sushant Singh Rajput starrer has not disappointed at the box office either as it is on course to join 100 crore club by the weekend as it has been the second biggest opener of Bollywood in 2016.
