film 'Uri' in Serbia. The film is based on
Indian army's surgical strikes in Pakistan-
occupied-Kashmir following the attacks on
'Uri' on September 29, 2016. While shooting
for an action sequence, the actor injured his
right arm last week. Vicky returned to
Mumbai for a few days over the weekend
for a prior commitment.
According to a source, Vicky had been
training daily because the film requires him
to pull off some daredevil stunts. During one
such sequence, he injured his arm badly and
was in unbearable pain.
"The doctors said it was due to muscle
inflammation and overexertion. He has been
undergoing daily physiotherapy sessions.
However, Vicky has resumed the shoot in
Serbia despite injury. The team has made
arrangements and planned the schedule in a
way to ensure that the injury isn't
aggravated, added the source.
Vicky has put on 20 kilos for his character.
"Considering the kind of action he's
required to do and the stuff he has to carry
as part of his character, Vicky had to gain
considerable weight for it. Earlier, he
weighed 70 kilos, and now, he's 90 kilos,
says a source.
URI produced by Ronnie Screwvala also
features Yami Gautam, Paresh Rawal, Kirti
Kulhari and Mohit Raina.
