But after finding out that there is no such facility for people living abroad temporarily, the actor urged citizens to “not forget to vote wherever and whenever you have to”.
Last year, the Mulk actor had shared with his fans the information that he was flying to the USA for medical treatment.
“Hello all! I am taking a short leave of absence from work to go to America for some medical treatment. I urge my well-wishers not to worry or unnecessarily speculate. It’s been 45 years ‘plus’ of wear and tear at the movies. With your love and good wishes, I will be back soon,” Rishi tweeted in September 2018.
The 66-year-old actor was last seen on silver screen in a cameo in Manto, directorial venture of noted actor Nandita Das.
