Abhishek Bach-chan’s insistence on performing his own stunts for Bol Bachchan proved a little too costly for the actor as he ended up with a nasty head injury, for which he had to be rushed to Mumbai to undergo surgery.
A source from the sets revealed that the incident took place during the first schedule of the film’s shoot at Jaipur on Tuesday. “A high-end action sequence was being shot and there was no body double available for that day. Abhi volunteered to do the stunt himself rather than have Rohit (Shetty) postpone the shoot for another day.”
Unfortunately, Junior B’s head hit a pole while performing the stunt and began bleeding profusely. “Abhi was administered first aid, but as it was a big injury, everyone felt that he needed to get it checked as well,” our source said. The concerns proved well-founded when, on presenting himself at a Mumbai hospital, Abhi was asked to immediately undergo a surgical procedure. “Yes, Abhi did need immediate treatment, but he is fine now and recuperating,” said the actor’s official spokesperson. The Bachchan family reportedly panicked when they heard the news, but settled down once Abhishek was back in Mumbai. The actor will be discharged on Thursday.
