The north has been heavily affected by severe rains, and R Madhavan has taken to his social media to share that he is stuck in Leh due to heavy rain. He recalled how he faced a similar situation in 2007
when he visited the city for the shoot of his much-loved blockbuster film 3 Idiots.
Taking to his Instagram Stories, R Madhavan gave a glimpse from his hotel room window that showed mountains covered in snow and skies filled with clouds. While giving a panoramic view from his room, Madhavan talked about the scary weather and shared that it had led to the cancellation of his flights.

“End of August, and we already got snow in the mountaintops at Ladakh. I’m stuck in Leh because the airports have been shut down due to incessant rain over the last four days. Somehow, every time I come to shoot in Ladakh, that’s what happens,” he said.
He further continued, “I came here last in 2008 for the 3 Idiots shoot at Pangong Lake, and we had to wait because it snowed all of a sudden in August, and now this. But still breathtakingly beautiful. I hope the sky clears up today and the planes are able to land so I can get back home.”
Sharing the clip, he wrote, “Stuck in Leh again… (shocked face emojis) No flights. Rain after 17 years (grinning squinting face, heart exclamation and red exclamation mark emojis).”
