Singh had said in May that he wanted to make a film on Tipu Sultan to “expose his dark side”. He had said that Tipu Sultan was a “tyrant” who had destroyed temples and churches and converted Hindus to Islam. In his statement, Singh said that he had decided to drop the film “in the interest of peace and harmony”. He said that he wanted to “unite all Indians, irrespective of their religion or caste”.

Singh is now working on a biopic on former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. The film, titled Main Atal Hoon, stars Pankaj Tripathi in the lead role.
