Salman Khan, makers delay Sikandar teaser release due to Dr Manmohan Singh's demise

<p>Condolences have been pouring in ever since the news of former Indian prime minister Manmohan Singh's demise. Political, sports, and film personalities paid rich tribute to Dr Singh on social media.</p>

<p>The actor revealed he had initially declined the project for "political reasons" and added that he did not want people to think he was 'mocking' the great economist.&nbsp;<br><br>In the video, Kher said, "To portray a character truthfully, you have to go inside the person.
