The student of the year star is shooting for his movie Sui Dhaaga: Made in India which is a social drama. The actor is trying to perform the stunts on his own in the movie despite being advised against the same. Varun Dhawan was filming a fight sequence which required the actor to roll down the stairs, directors advised Varun to let his body double do the act but Varun insisted on doing the same all by himself. Due to Varun’s insistence, the director finally gave in and started to film the shot.
“Varun was supposed to roll down a long flight of stairs and he insisted that he will do the sequence all by himself. It is a realistic sequence where Varun gets entangled in a street brawl and he has to fight to protect himself. The production insisted that there is risk attached to the scene and that he shouldn’t be risking his body but he was confident. The shot went off perfectly but while rolling down the stairs, he got minor injuries on his head and forehead. “Varun is absolutely fine. The doctors tended to him immediately. Varun was adamant that the shoot cannot stop and returned to the sets immediately despite being in pain and finished the shoot for the day as per production plans,” says the source.
Anushka Sharma is the female lead in the movie and is produced by Yash Raj Films. The film is being directed by Sharat Katariya who previously directed the movie Dum Lagaake Haisha starring Ayushmann Khurana and Bhumi Pednekar. Sui Dhaaga is all set to release on September 28th. This movie is going to clash with Irfan and Deepika Padukone’s new movie which is presently on hold due to both the actor’s health conditions.
