Kangna Ranwat seriously injured on set in sword fight scene

New Delhi, Jul 20 (IBNS) : Actress Kangana Ranaut was seriously injured while shooting for a sword-fight scene for her upcoming film Manikarnika: Rani Of Jhansi, a biopic on Rani Laxmibai.

Media reports quoted film producer Kamal Jain as saying that Kangna was hit by a sword between her eyebrows on Wednesday evening and was admitted in the ICU of  a hospital immediately.

Kangna reportedly got 15 stitches on her forehead and will be under observation in the hospital for a few days.

The examining doctor has been quoted as saying  that it was a close shave for her because the cut was too close to her bone.

The incident took place when shooting for a scene, Kangna's co-star Nihar Pandya swung his sword and she ducked, but  the time went wrong and the sword hit her on the forehead.

Manikarnika - The Queen Of Jhansi, is scheduled for release in 2018. It remains to be seen if this delays the production significantly.
