Rahul was shooting for Nitin's film 'LAC: Live The Battle' in Kargil when he suffered the stroke on November 26. And now, he will reunite with the same director for a film title 'Stroke'.

Speaking to Mumbai Mirror, while Nitin said that Rahul's speech therapy will continue for a while as he is facing difficulty saying a few words, the filmmaker also revealed that Rahul's stent surgery, which is on hold now after his twin brother Rohit wanted the actor to recuperate from the stroke, will happen soon. 

Rahul's next with Nitin titled 'Sayonee' is slated for release in theatres on December 18. 

Meanwhile speaking about the upcoming films 'Sayonee' and 'Stroke, Nitin told the publication, "This (Sayonee) will be his first release after the stroke and while other producers might be hesitant to work with him for a while, I plan to launch my next with him in February. It’s a murder mystery titled Stroke. Coincidentally, the film’s protagonist, played by Rahul, witnesses a murder but is unable to name the murderer because he has suffered a stroke. We are mixing reality with fiction."
