Actor Arshad Warsi has shot down rumours of leaving the promotions of his forthcoming film The Legend Of Michael Mishra in the lurch.

There were reports that now that the Aditi Rao Hydari, Warsi and Boman Irani-starrer is ready to release two years after being completed, the cast is “in no mood to promote it”. But the stars have a different story to narrate.

“I am not the kind of actor who backs out of his commitment. Michael Mishrais my film. Why would I refrain from promoting it? I have had to request the producer of Bhaiyyaji Superhit to push my dates so that I could promote Michael Mishra,” said Warsi.

The film releases on August 5.

Manish Jha, who has directed the film, also shared that the “promotions of the film have just kicked in and I am in constant touch with my cast and crew”.

He said: “They all are extremely excited about the project and you will see them promoting the film at various promotional events. The rumours doing the rounds in the media about their unavailability for the film is utterly baseless and will be proved wrong in the coming days.”

The Legend of Michael Mishra is a romantic comedy. Warsi plays a Patna-based gangster Michael who falls in love with Varsha (Rao Hydari). Varsha wants Michael to change his lifestyle and he decides to live a clean life, which turns out to be not easy as his past keeps haunting him.
