Sanjay Dutt continues to shoot despite injury.

Sanjay Dutt continues to shoot despite injury.

              Injuries seem to be more the norm rather than the exception with Sanjay Dutt. The actor recently tore a tendon in his elbow while working out but continued to shoot the next day in excruciating pain. 

Says a source close to Dutt, "Sanju has been working over the past year to keep himself fit and it shows! He has stopped drinking and has shed more than 16 kilos now. 

A couple of days ago, the actor was routinely working out in his gym at his Bandra residence. He was working on his triceps when some weights came crashing down on his arms.

The CEO of Sanjay Dutt Productions, Dharam Oberoi immediately rushed his boss to a doctor and got his X-rays done."

Dutt is currently shooting for Rascals, his home production being directed by David Dhawan in Mulund.

"A concerned Sanju wanted to resume shooting the same day in Mulund where the entire unit was present along with Arjun Rampal.

He knew that postponing the shoot would create a lot of hassles for the entire schedule, as it was an action sequence. He went on sets, completed the shoot and rushed home."

Says Dharam Oberoi, "Baba hurt his elbow tendon badly but did not let the injury come in the way of his shooting schedule for Rascals.

He visited the doctor, took X-rays, recieved the necessary treatment, applied ice packs and immediately rushed off to complete his day's work. He's a thorough professional."

Earlier this year, Dutt had hurt his foot while working out at a gym in Bangkok while shooting for Rascals.
