Although he is back shooting now, Big B was hurt for the second time on the sets of Sujoy Ghosh’s mega fantasy Alladin. With full-on action scenes, there is bound to be injury but this last incident was scary. The first injury was his wrist, but this time Big B was performing a kick for a fight when suddenly his back gave way and the 65-year-young actor was in excruciating pain. He was then rushed to the hospital for an MRI.

Back in action right after his hospital visit, Bachchan says, “Yes, I’ve injured myself doing an action scene for Alladin. I had to go to a hospital for an MRI test. However, I’m not hospitalized. I’m back on the set, heavily drugged to assuage the pain so I can complete crucial work.”

With it being an action packed film, Ghosh commented, “I wanted him to perform the stunts the same way he did in all those films like Zanjeer and Deewaar that I grew up watching. I caution Amitji before every action scene, but he just goes for the kill each time. I don’t want anything to happen to him for selfish reasons.”
