Nursing a knee injury, Hrithik will stay put in Mumbai and complete the dubbing for Jodha-Akbar.
The extended shooting schedule of Ashutosh Gowarikar's magnum opus, Jodhaa Akbar has taken a toll on Hrithik Roshan's health. He suffered a knee injury while enacting some battle sequences and has been advised bed rest for three months. The actor, who continues to film lest the film's post-production gets delayed, complained of acute pain recently and moved out of the chalet, which was built for the actor. Hrithik's spokesperson admits that the actor is in pain. "Hrithik has had a problem with his knees. He has been under treatment for a while," he said.The actor has been shooting for Jodhaa Akbar for almost a year now. His knee injury has only gone worse because the film's exhausting sequences didn't allow him much time to heal his wounds. "Hrithik had braved a spate of knee injuries during the schedule. He was taking medicines but didn't get the much required rest," says another source.
However, for the next few months, the actor is going to stay put in Mumbai and complete the dubbing for the film. He hasn't signed any new projects yet. His spokesperson says, "He has just completed a song sequence for Jodhaa Akbar and is back in the city. He might need to go back to Karjat for some patchwork. He is not working on any other films as of now."
