Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan has been injured on the sets of his film Project K while shooting in Hyderabad.

In his recent blog post, the actor wrote that his rib cartilage broke and he suffered a “muscle tear to the right rib cage”.

While he is at his Jalsa home recovering from the injury, experts revealed how a torn rib cartilage can be painful even when a person is breathing or coughing.

In the blog, the actor wrote that while the strapping has been done, he has to rest due to severe pain. “Strapping has been done and rest been advocated, yes painful, on movement and breathing, will take some weeks they say before some normalisation will occur. Some medication is on also for pain. So, all work that was to be done has been suspended and cancelled, dropped or postponed for the moment until healing occurs,” he wrote.
