With two releases, ‘Sarkar 3’ that has already released and ‘102 Not Out’ coming up, and with the shoot of ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ coming up and ‘Thugs Of Hindostan’ going on, Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan has had a lot on his plate this year. However, putting his best foot forward and displaying great zeal and professionalism in every project, the actor’s stamina can give many young actors a run for their money.

In fact, Amitabh was recently injured during the shoot of ‘Thugs Of Hindostan’ and ended up with a fractured rib and severe backache. While the movie’s team was ready to reschedule the shoot, Big B insisted that there should be no alteration in the schedule due to his injury and was back on set and shot with the pain of the injury. “Filming for the action scenes had resulted in an injury for Amitji. He had cracked his upper-left rib, but he continued to shoot despite excruciating pain, as the film’s shoot was being done on a tight schedule," revealed a source. A sheer mark of excellence, the actor truly inspired everyone on the set with his charisma and stamina.

We wish Mr. Bachchan a quick recovery.
