Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor’s son Harshvardhan Kapoor was recently injured on the set of Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s ‘Mirziya’ in Jaisalmer. During a horse riding shoot sequence he suddenly fell off a horse. The shoot was immediately brought to halt when the young actor collapsed on the sets . The news of their sons injury prompted his worried parents actor-dad Anil Kapoor and mom Sunita to rush to Jaisalmer.
Mirziya is Harshvardhan’s debut film. He is paired opposite Tanvi Azmi’s niece Saiyami Kher. The lead pair was given extensive training in Horse riding. During the shoot Harshvardhan fell off the horse. The incident was not noticed by the crew on the monitor.
Sources said, “Harshvardhan, however, seemed alright and got up to re-shoot the sequence. Though he complained of giddiness, he continued shooting only to collapse soon after. He was rushed to a Jodhpur hospital. CT scan revealed a minor head injury. He has also sustained foot injuries. He is recuperating at a hotel there and will resume shooting in a day or two. When Anil Kapoor heard the news, he immediately flew down to Jodhpur along with wife Sunita.”
Sources further added, “Harshvardhan suffered a foot injury but none realised that he had also hurt his skull. Instead of taking rest, he continued shooting and collapsed. Anil and Sunita are with him in Jodhpur now. We will shoot minor portions until he is fit to join us.”
Get well soon Harshvardhan.
