Actor Suniel Shetty, popularly known for his dedication to performing his own stunts, encountered a minor accident on the set of his upcoming series Hunter. While filming an intense action sequence with multiple stunt performers, a mishap occurred involving a wooden log prop. During a choreographed fight scene, the log was unintentionally misdirected and struck Shetty in the rib area, causing discomfort and temporarily halting the shoot.
Following that, an insider reported that Shetty was initially thought to be severely hurt, prompting on-set medical support. Doctors and X-ray equipment were brought in to assess the extent of his injuries, as the crew wanted to ensure he was safe to continue. The incident, which took place on a set in Mumbai, led to a brief pause in production as a precautionary measure.
Shetty, however, took to Instagram shortly after to address the situation. In his post, he reassured fans and well-wishers, stating, “Minor injury. Nothing serious. I am absolutely fine and ready for the next shot. Grateful for all the love and care.” His quick response eased concerns and highlighted his commitment to his craft.
The action series Hunter is highly anticipated by fans who admire Shetty’s action-oriented roles. Known for his fitness and resilience, Shetty’s decision to push through with the shoot was in line with his usual professional approach.
Apart from Hunter, Shetty is set to appear in the star-studded film Welcome to the Jungle, directed by Ahmed Khan. The ensemble cast includes Akshay Kumar, Disha Patani, Paresh Rawal, Jacqueline Fernandez, Lara Dutta, Raveena Tandon, Arshad Warsi, and Shreyas Talpade. Actor Aftab Shivdasani recently joined the cast, adding to the anticipation surrounding the comedy film, which is scheduled for release on December 20.
