Due to "contractual infractions," Shoaib Akhtar dissociates himself from the biography Rawalpindi Express.

The Rawalpindi Express is no longer listed in books. Former cricketer Shoaib Akhtar declared that he has legally withdrawn the rights to his life's story and separated himself from the "dream project." He cited "continuous contractual infractions" and "failure to resolve differences peacefully" as reasons for the breakup.



He published an official statement on his Twitter account on Saturday. Very regrettably, he stated, "I would like to inform all of you that I have decided to distance myself from the movie Rawalpindi Express and its producers by cancelling the agreement through my management and legal team.

Even though he made an effort to survive, he claimed that his biopic didn't turn out as well as he had intended. He acknowledged that it was a dream project and stated, "Unfortunately, things were not going well. I did a lot to prevent [this] and stay in the boat." We severed connections with them as a result of ongoing contractual infractions and inability to resolve differences peacefully.


Akhtar asserted that he had formally and legally quit the project and threatened to take legal action if the filmmakers decide to proceed. "I have abandoned the endeavour after adhering to all legal requirements to revoke the rights to my life's tale.

If the creators of the biography film continue to use my name or incidents from my life narrative in any way, severe legal action will be taken, he added.


The "first foreign film about a Pakistani sportsman" was announced in July of last year and is slated for release in November of this year. It felt like a dream come true for the filmmaker, Muhammad Faraz Qaiser, to be able to bring a vision from 2016 to fruition.


Rumors that singer-actor Umair Jaswal would be playing Akhtar were confirmed in November, but he soon changed his mind. Earlier this month, he announced on Instagram that he will not be portraying the former cricketer owing to "artistic and personal reasons."
