Vikram suffers rib injury during ‘Thangalaan’ rehearsals, takes break from Pa Ranjith film

Actor Vikram, who is garnering a lot of praise for his performance in Mani Ratnam’s ‘Ponniyin Selvan 2’, suffered a rib injury while rehearsing for his forthcoming film ‘Thangalaan’. The actor’s manager tweeted that the actor will be taking a break from the shooting of Pa Ranjith’s film.

Suryanarayanan, Vikram’s manager and his son Dhruv, wrote, ‘Thank you for all the love and appreciation Aditha Karikalan aka Chiyaan Vikram has received and for the astounding response to PS2 from all over the world. Chiyaan sustained an injury during rehearsals resulting in a broken rib due to which he will not be able to join his Thangalaan unit for a short while. He thanks everyone for your love and promises to be back on his feet and rocking at the earliest (sic).’

Fans have reacted to the tweet wishing a speedy recovery for the actor.

‘Thangalaan’ is based on real incidents that happened in the Kolar gold mines. Vikram will play the role of chief of an indigenous tribe. The film also stars Pasupathy, Parvathy Thiruvothu, Malavika Mohanan, and Daniel Caltagirone. The movie is set to be released in theatres next year.
