Prachi Desai took fans by surprise when she was recently spotted in a wheelchair at an airport. The actor, who sustained an injury while filming for Silence, alongside Manoj Bajpayee, was reportedly shooting an action sequence.
A source says, “It was a night sequence. Prachi was to climb and jump over a barricade. Unfortunately, during the rehearsal, her right foot slipped and she hurt herself. While she kept mum about the injury and continued shooting, she could no longer walk, after some time. When the team saw her limping, they noticed that she had a severely swollen ankle.”
On medical intervention, it was learnt that Desai had damaged her tissues, and would need to defer filming for a while. “She has been advised bed rest for a week and will resume shooting after two weeks,” says the source.
