The 36-year-old actor did not call it a day despite being in pain and completed his portions after medical assistance and supervision. He put up with the pain for the next three days and ensure that they meet the deadline as the set they were shooting was created to reflect the 70s era and recreating the same would be an extra burden on the producer.
