Sushant Singh Rajput advised 1 month rest after injuring himself on Raabta set

Mumbai: Sushant Singh Rajput, who's currently shooting for 'Raabta', an action-romance being shot in Budapest and Mauritius among other locations, will be seen in some intense action sequences in the film, for which he was seen rigorously working out. And while shooting one of these intense scenes, he tore a ligament in his right knee.

About his injury, the 'M. S. Dhoni: The Untold Story' actor said in a statement, "We practiced a lot and I could do the stunt properly every time, but unfortunately on the day of the shoot it was pouring and the ground was slippery. That caused the injury. I am glad that we could still finish the scene as planned."

The doctors who examined his injury have asked Sushant to avoid running and other strenuous workouts for a month till the injury heals.

‘Raabta’ marks the directorial debut of Dinesh Vijan, co-producer of films such as ‘Cocktail’ and ‘Love Aaj Kal’ with Saif Ali Khan.
