Ranveer Singh injured himself on the head while shooting for the climax scene of ‘Padmavati’. The injury needed immediate medical attention but Ranveer didn’t let this interfere with the shoot. A source close to the actor revealed, “Ranveer hurt himself on the head while shooting for ‘Padmavati’ during a particular take but he was so engrossed in the performance that he did not realise it till cut was called. Only after he started bleeding profusely from the head after the scenes was cut, did everyone realise that he was hurt badly. Ranveer received initial first aid on the set and was rushed immediately to a nearby hospital for treatment. He required stitches for the injury but after the basic treatment Ranveer returned to the film’s set to complete his portions of the shoot. Rather than let his injury slow him down or impact the shoot, Ranveer completed the day’s work. Rarely do you see a star with such dedication and commitment.”
Playing Alauddin Khilji has been very demanding on Ranveer both physically and emotionally, given the role’s negative and villainous nature. This injury just reflects how tough this part has been on the actor, but Ranveer seems to conquer all odds, smoothly.
