Shooting for Karan Johar’s upcoming multi-starrer Kalank is going on in full swing. The movie went on floors a couple of months ago in Mumbai. Meeting minor accidents on the sets while shooting is a part and parcel of an actor’s life, but the frequency at which actors are getting injured on the sets of Kalank is a worrisome problem.
After Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt, who had injured themselves on the sets of Kalank a few weeks ago, now Aditya Roy Kapur, who joined the shoot in June, has also injured himself on the sets recently. Kapur was filming an action scene when he lost his balance and injured himself. The actor was immediately rushed to a hospital.
"Shooting for Kalank was happening in the Film City (Mumbai) and Aditya, while shooting an intense action scene, somehow lost his grip and slipped. He hurt his jaw and broke a tooth, and was immediately taken to the hospital. The doctor has suggested that he rests for at least six to seven days. Depending on how soon he recovers, it will be decided when he can resume shooting,” informed a source.
After a series of accidents on the sets, the makers have now decided to take extra care while filming. "Something is wrong, as one after another, actors of the film are meeting with accidents since the shoot began. Given the back-to-back incidents, the makers have decided to take extra precaution on the sets,” added the source.
Apart from Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt and Aditya Roy Kapur, Kalank also stars Madhuri Dixit, Sanjay Dutt, Sonakshi Sinha and Kunal Khemu. The film is being helmed by Abhishek Verman. It is set to release on 19th April, 2019.
