When the gate came crashing down
Adhvik Mahajan injured his knee while shooting for Teri Meri Ikk Jindri at a Mira Road studio. The actor, who features as Jogi in the love saga, was rushed to a hospital. He was shooting for a prison sequence, when one of the co-actors pushed the cell gate with force, and it came crashing down on him. Though Mahajan has suffered a muscle tear, he is back on the set.
