Shagun Pandey of 'Meet' gets six stitches on this hand; showcases extreme dedication to work

Zee TV's latest fiction show, Meet, has made a special place for itself in the audience’s hearts since its premiere. The inspirational show presents the story of Meet Hooda (Ashi Singh), who mirrors several women across the nation that are fighting societal norms of gender roles regarding work and responsibilities. While the show has already managed to create a sense of awakening amongst the audience, Meet Hooda's marriage to Meet Ahlawat (Shagun Pandey) left everyone surprised. However, that's not it! When you hear about the recent incident on the sets of the show, you will be astonished.   

Ashi Singh and Shagun Pandey have been shooting round the clock to keep their viewers entertained, however, while shooting for a scene with Ashi, Shagun Pandey got severely injured. During a sequence, a centerpiece with a sharp edge fell on the actor's hand by mistake and he got a deep cut. In fact, he had to get 6 stitches on his hand for the same. While everyone on the set was shocked, Shagun was back on the set in no time for the shoot.

Talking about his injury, Shagun mentioned, “Injury and I go hand-in-hand always. I must mention that I have got injured in almost all my projects. I get hurt sometimes while performing stunts or while doing an action scene, but rab di badi meher rahi hai that I have always come out of it. When I got injured on the sets of Meet, I immediately knew the cut was very deep and hence, I went to the hospital immediately. The injury has been very painful, but I was back on the set right from the hospital to resume work as I don't want such small things to impact the bigger things in life. I must add that the production team has been very helpful, and they even asked me to rest at home, but I wanted to work so that I could distract myself from this pain.”  

He further added, “I honestly feel all these incidents define your character and how you overcome it is what matters the most. You will come across such situations in life a lot of times, but today if you make excuses and sit at home, it will not lead you anywhere in life. I feel my determination towards my work will take me ahead in life.”

While Shagun’s dedication towards work is absolutely outstanding, we wish him a speedy recovery. In the meantime, get ready to witness the cute banter between Meet Hooda and Meet Ahlawat in the upcoming episodes of Meet. But is this the start of their new love story? Will they accept each other as husband and wife? Or is there some other twist in the tale that is coming up?
