The indefatigable superstar got injured while shooting a fight scene for his movie Aladdin .
Despite his age, Amitabh Bachchan has the grit to do a full-on action role in director Sujoy Ghosh’s fantasy flick ‘Aladdin’ in which the sexagenarian superstar plays a genie.
On Monday, while doing a fighting scene with a couple of extras at Mehboob Studios, Mr. Bachchan hurt his back severely. So excruciating was the pain that he had to be taken to Mumbai’s Lilavati Hospital for orthopedic examination.
The superstar reportedly underwent X-Ray and MRI scan of his back. Thankfully, nothing serious was detected in the tests.
However, the doctors gave him medication after which Mr. Bachchan returned back to the sets of ‘Aladdin’ to complete the shoot. The superstar’s unflagging professionalism and indomitable spirit left the young director completely floored.
Earlier, Amitabh Bachchan had hurt his wrist while shooting an action scene for the same film.
