New Delhi:
Actor Shahid Kapoor has been prepping hard for his forthcoming film Padmavati in which he will be seen portraying the role of Rani Padmavati's husband Rawal Ratan Singh. The 36-year-old actor, who suffered a ligament tear in July on the sets of the film, has reportedly injured himself again. According to a mid-day report, Shahid Kapoor's ankle injury resurfaced after he shot for some strenuous action sequences. "Shahid had to perform a few stunts. It has taken a toll on him and his ankles are swollen," a source close to the unit told mid-day. "The unit is racing against time to meet the deadline. It is impossible to halt the shoot at this stage. He has almost 10 days of shoot left," the source added.
