Post-injury, Vivek Oberoi resumes shooting for PM Narendra Modi biopic

Bollywood actor Vivek Oberoi is currently on a working spree, as the actor has been for a biopic on Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the picturesque Harshil valley of Uttarkashi district in Uttarakhand. However, the actor faced a setback on Saturday as he injured himself while shooting for this biopic.

The film is slated to feature Modi's early life and the political journey which is being shot in the district at places like Ganga ghat, Kalp Kedar Mandir and the suspension bridge connecting Dharali bazar and Mukhba village. 

The actor hurt himself slightly in the leg while shooting a scene which shows PM Modi walking barefoot on snow at Ganga ghat near Dharali village. The doctors immediately did a stitch on the actor's leg who had got a cut from the pointed branch of a tree.

However, unit members said the actor is fine and has resumed shooting.

The scene showing PM Modi unfurling the national flag at Srinagar's Lal Chawk along with other BJP leaders was also shot on a set erected in Dharali bazar.

The film is being directed by Omung Kumar, who is best known for films such as Mary Kom and Sarabjit.
