Tanushree almost breaks her back
- IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,November 06 2010]
It is a known fact that for her upcoming film 'Ramaa - The Saviour', Tanushree Dutta has done most of the stunts herself. Since the film is set in a jungle and has an action packed theme to it, it was imperative that not just was the film shot in real locations but also see its lead protagonists (including hero Saahil Khan and villain Khali) get to kick and fly in air all by themselves rather than using a duplicate.
So many stunts were inspired by Lara Croft films and I did most of them myself, divulges Tanushree.
However, a near accident in the last leg of the film's shoot turned out to be a painful situation for Tanushree. While she was all excited about her stint with action then, there was one such difficult stunt that went wrong, hence resulting in a back injury for her that lasted for as long as six months.
This was the stunt where I almost broke my back, she recollects, I remember that the filming had taken place in Bangkok and though I hadn't realised the severity of this stunt then, it was only on my return to Mumbai that I found out how bad it was. My back had turned totally soar and I couldn't indulge in any strenuous physical act. In fact I couldn't even go to gym for 6 months.
After the experience, Tanushree has now promised herself that she would be extra careful in films to come and won't hesitate from using a stunt double if the situation demands so.
