Ahead of Lucky Baskhar‘s release, Dulquer Salmaan opened up about his medical condition caused a delay in the movie’s shooting schedule. The actor said, “I don’t like gaps. This year, I was supposed to do a couple of films. One got cancelled, and one didn’t work out at the last minute. Then, I had health issues. We (the Lucky Baskhar team) had delays because of that. My producer, director and everyone were so supportive. Once, when we were shooting and if I was in some kind of pain, they would say, ‘Sir, we’ll stop now. Don’t do this. Go home and take some time off. We will come back and shoot,'” in an interview with TV9 Entertainment.
He continued, “A huge set was erected for Lucky Baskhar. If I insisted on continuing the shoot, they’d say that they don’t want to see me in pain. They were so supportive.”
Dulquer Salmaan will be next seen in L2: Empuraan (E.M.P.U.R.A.A.N), also called L2E, an upcoming action thriller, directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran.
