Shah Rukh Khan is alive and well!

The Raees star was rumoured to have been involved in a serious accident recently, that occurred on the sets of his upcoming venture with Anushka Sharma.

A portion of the ceiling collapsed on the sets of Anand L Rai’s upcoming movie, but the superstar managed to escape unhurt. Two crew members, however, got minor injuries, reported Mumbai Mirror.

“A prop ladder fell on the makeshift ceiling. The injured crew members were discharged immediately since the injuries were minor. Everybody heaved a sigh of relief that SRK was seated on another side of the set and was unharmed," said the report.

According to Indian Express, Rai has also issued an official statement about the accident. “It was a minor injury and nothing serious. Prompt care and action was taken. The shooting had to be stalled that day as it was cloudy and not suited to the scene’s requirements,” the director said. Filming will apparently resume later this week.

This wasn't SRK's first brush with danger. The actor has previously been injured while shooting for Darr, Ra.One and Chennai Express among other films.

The yet to be titled film, in which Khan is said to be playing a  dwarf, will also star Katrina Kaif. Apparently, neither of the two leading ladies were on set as they haven't begun their work on the picture yet.

SRK began shooting for Rai’s film just last week. This will be the second time that the trio are seen on screen together, after the late Yash Chopra's 2012 romance,Jab Tak Hai Jaan.
