Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez, who has been shooting some high-intensity action sequences for her upcoming film Race 3 in Abu Dhabi, has suffered an eye injury.
According to reports, she was immediately rushed to the hospital owing to the sensitivity of the body part. After receiving primary treatment at the hospital, she was discharged.
Fernandez returned to the sets soon after her visit to the hospital to continue her scheduled scene.
Producer Ramesh Taurani confirmed the news saying: “Yes, it was a minor injury. Jacqueline is hurt above the eye while playing squash. She is better now and has resumed shooting.”
Fernandez has been shooting action scenes in Abu Dhabi since the last week, with the actress performing mixed martial art techniques involving kicks and punches. She has been prepping for two hours daily to master her action moves, say the makers.
Race 3 stars an ensemble cast including Salman Khan, Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Saqib Saleem and Daisy Shah.
The film is produced by Salman Khan Films and Taurani under the banner of Tips Films. It is directed by Remo D’souza, and will hit theatres on Eid 2018.
