"It was the worst pain i ever felt. O sustained a hairline fracture on the tailbone which i feel i am still healing from.Thankful to my team for helping me continue that day i could barely walk but we kept going. Grateful for the journey," he added.

Actor Ali Mughal also reflected on the same and said, “This happened during an intense fight sequence.
