The actor, 65, on Sunday had tweeted that he was travelling to Belfast, Ireland for the shoot of Mrs Wilson.

In an accompanying video, he said, “Have reached London and from here I got to Belfast for a series for BBC titled Mrs Wilson. It is a good role. Whenever I work for an international series or movie, then from within I feel I am representing India and I have to give my best.

“I have to do good work in India but outside, I want to do better.”
