He is not called the Bollywood 'badshah' for nothing. Superstar Shah
Rukh Khan suffered a minor injury on the "Happy New Year" set here
Thursday, and within a few hours after seeking quick medical aid, he
returned to the movie set. The crew welcomed him with a standing
ovation.
The 48-year-old was taken to a city hospital following a minor injury
that he suffered while shooting for the film here. He was discharged
within two hours and went straight back to work, said his spokesperson.
"Shah Rukh got a slight cut on his forehead and he was taken to the
hospital as a precaution to make sure there was no serious injury. He is
going back to work now," the actor-producer's spokesperson told IANS
soon after he was discharged.
He was rushed to the Dr. Balabhai Nanavati Hospital here after he suffered the injury caused by a door on the set of the movie.
His wife Gauri Khan was by his side. However, she left the hospital
premises a few minutes before SRK. There was tight security outside the
hospital.
According to "Happy New Year" director and Shah Rukh's good friend Farah, he was "stubborn" about resuming the shoot.
"Thank you all for your concern and love. SRK is good and being stubborn
about resuming shoot...so we are back to work. God's been good,"
tweeted Farah.
"The entire crew gives a standing ovation to the returning hero," she posted Thursday evening.
Injuries are not new to Shah Rukh.
While working in films, he had first suffered a hairline fracture on his
knee cap while shooting for "Koyla" in the 1990s. In the past decade,
he tore a shoulder muscle, suffered a back injury and has undergone
surgery too.
In 2011, his meniscus (cartilage) got ruptured when his leg got stuck in a puddle.
Shah Rukh had even injured himself during "Ra.One". Just last year, he
underwent a shoulder surgery to alleviate the pain which he endured
throughout the shooting of the action-packed "Chennai Express".
A lover of sports, SRK is truly a sport himself!
