“It is his return to choreography after nearly 20 years and its also his entry song in the movie. The shoot cant be pushed since Arshad’s dates are blocked post June for Dedh Ishqiya,” the source adds. Producer Bhola Malviya confirms the news, “Yes, it’s true that Arshad has a knee issue and our shoot is only seven days away. But he is recovering fast and will also be accompanying us to Goa. He knows his condition the best and we will surely have a great shoot.” Arshad, on his part, plays it down, “I’m actually quite looking forward to the Goa schedule... this is the best time to go and chill out in Goa and I’m also getting back to my first love, dancing. I’ll be flying n a couple of days. My knee is recovering well and the acupressure sessions are helping a lot. So I’m quite excited about the schedule. It’s going to be fun.”
