Ranveer Singh will not perform at this year’s IPL opening ceremony, due to a recent shoulder injury.

The actor’s spokesperson issued a statement and said, “After multiple medical check-ups, the doctors have strongly advised Ranveer Singh to not perform at this year’s IPL opening ceremony in which he was doing the finale act. They feel his high-energy performance would only overstrain his shoulder and aggravate the injury.”

He, however, added, “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.”
