Akshay Kumar was a victim of an occupational hazard. The actor, who was shooting a fight sequence in heavy rain for two consecutive days for Rowdy Rathore, came down with a fever as a result. In fact, Mumbai Mirror has learnt that after shooting the 17 scenes at the under-construction site in Mulund, he fell so ill on Wednesday evening that the shoot scheduled for the following day had to be canceled.
A unit member explained, “Akshay was shooting an action sequence, in which he had to fight 40 men in very rainy weather. He was wet and had to continue shooting for 12 hours at a stretch. That’s how he caught a temperature. Director Prabhu Deva was informed later that night that Akki had taken ill and would not be able to shoot on Thursday. ”
The shoot has tentatively been rescheduled to Friday, as it is subject to Akshay’s health.
Both, Akshay Kumar and Prabhu Deva were unavailable for comment.
