Sargun Mehta aka grown up Phulwa of Siddharth Tewarys Phulwa recently realised how demanding playing the central role of her show can be.Earlier seen in Karol Bagh and Geeta,her characters were in complete contrast with the role that she is essaying currently.Since her role is inspired by the infamous bandit Phoolan Devi,she obviously gets to do all the action packed sequences which is rare for any TV actress.However,on Tuesday as Sargun was gearing up for yet another action-filled scene,she goofed up and ended up hurting herself badly.The actress was shooting for a jungle sequence where Shatrugan (Ajay Singh Chaudhary) and Phulwa are shown running to escape from Thakurs goons and suddenly she twists her ankle,trips and Shatrugan lifts her.The shot looked almost real.Thats because Sargun had actually twisted her ankle by landing on her foot wrongly while running and had fractured her left ankle.Though not grave,the accident did dampen her spirit as the following day was her birthday and she had made plans of dining out with her friends to bring it in.She had taken an off for her birthday well in advance but had to cancel her plans due to her injury.However,this chutti can be considered a blessing in disguise as Sargun got a day to completely rest and recover from the pain.We wish her a speedy recovery!
