TIL Desk Bollywood/ Megastar Amitabh Bachchan has said he broke several bones shooting for action sequences in “Thugs of Hindostan”, but he went with the flow to honour director Vijay Krishna Acharya’s wishes. In March, his “Thugs” co-star Aamir Khan revealed that the megastar had suffered a shoulder and back injury.
“It is not my age to do all this but our director asked us to do so I did it. There is no part of the body that has not been broken and there is no doctor that I haven’t met. There is not much improvement,” Bachchan, 75, told reporters.
He was speaking at the trailer launch of “Thugs of Hindostan”. The actor added shooting the action sequences in rains added to his woes. “Had they made me wear normal clothes, it would have been easier but I was made to wear armour. They made me wear leather clothes and it was so heavy, it was about 30-40 kg, then they gave me a sword, turban and long hair.
