Reports earlier said the producer has been put on a ventilator after Jain had tweeted about his condition. “Dear friends, this certainly is not the best time to be in hospital. Hope to get well soon and enjoy the success of our collective dream & hardwork. My best wishes to all, “ adding, “I will be back as soon as possible, till then I’ll be with you in spirit and soul,” he added in his tweet.

 

Manikarnika has been through a lot of controversies. The film was to be directed by south Indian filmmaker Krish who left it midway amid speculation that Kangana was not happy with the way it had shaped up; actor Sonu Sood followed suit. Kangana then took on directorial duties and shares credits for the film with Krish.
