Anupam Kher injured on ‘Vijay 69’ set; mother says he fell prey to the evil eye: see post

Veteran actor Anupam Kher, who was busy shooting for his upcoming sports film ‘Vijay 69’, has been injured on the sets. He took to social media to share the news with his fans and posted a picture of himself as he wore a sling and posed for the camera holding a ball.

The actor shared that the person putting the sling on him said that he had done it for actors Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan, and after hearing this his pain subsided a little. He also revealed that his mother Dulaari said that he fell prey to the evil eye.

The caption of his post read, ‘Aap sports film karo aur aap ghaayal na ho!! Aisa kaise ho sakata hai? Kal #vijay69 ki shooting ke dauran kandhe mein achi khaasi choth lagi (You do a sports film and you don't get injured!! How can this be possible? Yesterday during the shooting of #Vijay69, injured the shoulder badly).’

He added, ‘Dard to hai par jab kandhe par sling lagaane vaale bhaiya ne bataaya ki unhone hi @iamsrk aur @hrithikroshan ke kandhon ko is sling se sajaaya tha to pata nahin kyon dard ka ehasaas thoda kam ho gaya (It is painful but when the person who put the sling on the shoulder told that he had decorated the shoulders of @iamsrk and @hrithikroshan with this sling, then don't know why the pain subsided a little).’

Anupam continued, ‘Par waese agar thoda zor se khaansun toh muh se halki si cheekh zaroor nikalti hai! Photo mein muskuraane ke koshish genuine hai! Ek do dinon baad shooting jaari rahegi (But by the way, if I cough a little hard, then a little scream definitely comes out of my mouth! The effort to smile in the photo is genuine! The shooting will continue after a couple of days).’

The actor concluded by saying, ‘Waese maa ne suna to boli, 'Aur dikha apni body duniya ko!! Tujhe nazar lag gayi!' Maine jawaab diya, 'Maa! Girte hai shahasvaar hi maidaan e jang mein. Vo tiphal kya girega jo ghutno ke bal chale!' Maa jhaapad maarte maarte rukh gayi (By the way, when my mother heard it, she said, 'Show your body to the world!! You fell prey to the evil eye!' I replied, 'Mom! Only the warriors fall in the field of war. How will those fall who walk on knees!' Mom stopped short of slapping me).’

Anupam also added the hashtags-hairline fracture, I am fine and Dulari rocks.

Fans and friends have wished him a speedy recovery in the comment section. Reacting to the picture, Neena Gupta asked, ‘Oh what have you done?’ Anupam replied, ‘That's what happens to great artists like you and me! Mild injuries.’
