Shahid escapes serious injury in fire

MUMBAI: Actor Shahid Kapoor, who has been shooting hardcore action sequences for Prabhudheva’s “Rambo Rajkumar”, managed to escape a serious injury.

It happened Friday when the 32-year-old was shooting at Kamalistan Studio for a scene where he has to enter a burning house. He finished his shot and was stepping out of the burning house, when some hot chemical solution dripped on to his back and arms.

"The fire is created artificially through a chemical solution... The solution fell on his back and forearms. The solution was hot and it immediately burnt holes in Shahid's t-shirt. He half sprinted while removing his t-shirt,” said a source.

The actor has got some burn marks. He later visited a dermatologist to ensure the wounds heal quickly.
