The way things are, it looks like Hrithik Roshan may soon need to sport some evil-eye talismans to protect him from meeting with accidents on the sets of Ashutosh Gowariker's Jodhaa-Akbar.
War sequence
Recently, the actor, who plays Akbar, hurt his knee while performing a major action scene. A source reveals, "Hrithik has just wrapped a schedule in Rajasthan where a major war sequence were shot. Now he's shooting at the ND Studios in Karjat with Aishwarya. A few days back, he suffered a knee injury while doing a scene which required him to do sword fighting with another actor. He was in pain and even consulted a physiotherapist."
Dad's unaware
When asked about the injury, Hrithik's father Rakesh Roshan says, "I am not aware of any such thing. He is shooting at ND Studios at the moment."
This latest incident is just one of the several mishaps Hrithik has met with while shooting for Jodha Akbar. The actor also met with a freak car accident a month back on his way home from the sets at Karjat.
No delays
The actor's secretary, Ashok Vasodhia says, "Jodhaa Akbar has many intense battle scenes. Hrithik has been injured on more than one occasion, but is keen on completing the shoot of the film on time. Such things keep happening. He doesn't want his injuries to cause any delay in the schedule. Even after his recent injuries, he has reported on the sets and is presently shooting with Aishwarya."
Rubbishing reports that the film is getting delayed he adds, "This is the last schedule of Jodhaa Akbar and they plan to wrap up the shoot by the month-end. There is no delay."
Another source from the film adds that the biggest hurdle on the film is shooting with animals. "Apart from the actors, the film has 80 elephants, 100 horses and 55 camels for shooting. It's really difficult to shoot with these animals when they get out of hand."
Previous accidents
Hrithik Roshan hurt himself during a sword fight sequence earlier with Aishwarya Rai. As well, during rehearsals, he had fallen off the horse and was dragged over a distance.
