Shahid Kapoor delays Dingko Singh biopic

Shahid Kapoor has delayed the production of a biopic based on boxer Dingko Singh, directed by Raja Krishna Menon, due to the poor performance of the latter’s ‘Chef’.

A source told Deccan Chronicle, “Menon had approached Shahid a while ago and Shahid had okayed it, buoyed by the success of the Akshay Kumar starrer Airlift. But then, the director’s next preparation Chef could not get the audiences to the theatres and Shahid became a little wary of the project. While he has still not backed out of the film in principle, he has told the makers to wait till he decides on his further course of action after Kabir Singh. Shahid was also to produce the biopic”.
