The impact of the fire accident that have taken place on the sets of Prabhu Deva's Rambo Rajkumar earlier this week in Mumbai was not as minor as it is being made out to be as a result of which Shahid Kapoor is said to have suffered burn injuries on his back and hand, and he would need some time to recover fully.

According to a source close to the film said that they were shooting a fire sequence when the chemical used to create the fire went away from the expected while it scorched Shahid's shoulder and hand which could have been even worse. Thankfully nothing serious happened.

At the same time, the stunts in Rambo Rajkumar are getting more and more dare-devilish as Prabhu Deva wants them to be one-up on what Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar did in Wanted and Rowdy Rathore, respectively.

Furthermore, the source said that when Shahid decided to do his first action film, he had to make sure the stunts were of the never-before variety. That's why he waited so long to do an action film and even opted out of his friend Siddharth Anand's Bang Bang. It is little known that Bang Bang was a project that was planned with Shahid.

The source further said that during then somewhere down the line Shahid preferred Prabhu's project as his first attempt at the action genre. Bang Bang is a remake of a Tom Cruise actioner Knight and Day and Shahid didn't want his stunts to be compared with Cruise. Rambo Rajkumar is an original. When contacted, Prabhu Deva kept back from commenting on the injury, but he mentioned that he is taking a break with his two sons while he said that they are  going to Australia for a holiday. In fact, he said while being in his vacation with his kids, he will also reveal the first look of Girish Taurani's debut film Ramaiya Vasta Vaiya.

That was indeed Gods grace on Shahid!
