Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff are all set to dazzle audiences with their upcoming film Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. With the release date drawing near, the duo is leaving no stone unturned to ensure the promotions are successful. Recently, they graced YouTuber Ranveer Allahabadia's podcast, The Ranveer Show, where they shared insights into their journey and experiences. During the podcast, Akshay reminisced about the time he broke his back while filming Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi in 1996.
The incident occurred during a scene where he had to lift none other than the legendary WWE wrestler, The Undertaker. Despite his dedication to delivering authentic action sequences, the stunt proved to be too taxing, resulting in a serious injury for the actor. Akshay revealed, “Mujhe bhi yaad hai (the film) aur meri peeth ko bhi yaad hai… Toot gayi thi usko (The Undertaker) uthaya tha (I vividly remember the experience, as does my back. I suffered a broken back after lifting The Undertaker). I lifted him, I was mad. He was somewhere around 425 pounds or something and we went ahead and I decided ki, ‘okay utha loonga‘(I will lift him).”
He added, “Kar toh liya, sab kuch ho gaya. Teen din baad, ‘khadak’ kuch bol gaya. Then I had a slipped disc… Abhi bahut behtareen hai (Everything worked out, but my back eventually gave out). After enduring a slipped disc, I found solace in hydro-therapy, a treatment that involved running and exercising in water. It greatly improved my condition.”
The film completed 25 years in 2021 and Akshay Kumar had taken to X, formerly Twitter, to share anecdotes. He wrote, “A hilarious note to mark 25 years to the release of #KhiladiyonKaKhiladi tomorrow! A fun fact though: it was wrestler Brian Lee who played The Undertaker in the film.”
Responding to the post, Mark Calaway, the real Undertaker, said, “Ha! Tell me when you are ready for a REAL rematch.” Akshay quickly responded, “Let me check on my insurance, and get back, bro!”
