Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has once again demonstrated his unwavering commitment to his craft. Despite suffering a painful rib injury during the filming of his upcoming action thriller, ‘Sikandar’, directed by AR Murugadoss. Salman continued to shoot pivotal scenes, including a song sequence, without delay.
The injury occurred while Salman was performing an intense action sequence. Describing the severity, he stated, “I couldn’t sit, stand, cough, or even laugh properly because of the discomfort.” Remarkably, instead of taking time off to recover, Salman resumed shooting the very next day. His dedication was particularly evident during the filming of the song ‘Bam Bam Bhole’. Where, despite his condition, he delivered a compelling performance.
Director AR Murugadoss acknowledged Salman’s resilience, noting that the actor worked 14-hour shifts despite his injury. He remarked, “When the going gets tough, the tough get going,” highlighting Salman’s determination to keep the project on schedule.
Further showcasing his professionalism, Salman incorporated his discomfort into the choreography. During a song sequence, he placed his hand under his chest to alleviate pain, and the background dancers adopted this move, ultimately making it part of the routine.
In addition to his physical challenges, Salman faced security concerns during the shoot. Following multiple death threats, including one allegedly from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang demanding an apology or ₹5 crore. The production implemented heightened security measures to ensure the safety of the cast and crew.
Despite these obstacles, the filming of ‘Sikandar’ continues at a brisk pace. With the team working tirelessly to deliver a high-octane cinematic experience. The film is slated for an Eid 2025 release, and fans eagerly anticipate witnessing Salman’s signature action and charisma on the big screen once again.
Salman Khan’s perseverance and passion, even in the face of physical pain and external threats, underscore his status as a true superstar, both on and off the screen.
