Rajshri Thakur, Sharad Kelkar, Ashlesha and Akshay Anand in Saat Phere
Sharad Kelkar, who plays the lead in Zee's Saat Phere is used to being in the middle or causing mishaps on the set. This time around, it was Ashlesha Sawant's turn to bear the brunt of an accidental injury.

Knee-jerk!

Describing what happened, Sharad says, "The scene required me to run towards Ashlesha and pull her away from the truck. Instead, I ran into her and my leg hit her knee, making her trip and fall. She was in pain and I advised her to get some physiotherapy done."

Since the actor has worked as a gym instructor before, he could help her ease her painful cramp, "Thankfully, it wasn't a severe injury. But she was in pain for quite some time."

Ashlesha, who is infamous for fainting and getting injured on the sets, laughs about her injurys, "The number of times I've been in news for accidents isn't funny. I should actually start making the most of my health insurance."

Didn't see it coming

Sawant admits that it was Sharad's leg that tripped her, but adds that it was something she didn't see coming. "It happened really fast, and before I could react I was on the ground. However, I am much better now and back to my shoot."

Sharad, who is also rehearsing for Nach Baliye 2, is all praise for his wife Keerti who's down with viral fever yet dancing and shooting for her shows. "She even kept the Hartalika fast on the first day of Ganesh Chaturthi. I don't know how she's managing all this at the same time. I am totally inspired by her hard work and sincerity."
