"I broke it in four places. I sustained four hairline fractures while playing cricket. I was so heartbroken because I didn't know how to continue doing the show. It's not the kind of story where standing around saying dialogues makes the cut. Landing punches, firing weapons is crucial to the character. I couldn't wear a cast because it would be a major continuity jerk," Tanuj tells IANS.
He further elaborates: "So we came up with a customised cast which I wore in between takes and would be off it when in front of the camera." Cartel, which will release on August 20, is a show starring over 138 actors. Tanuj knew that he had to match up to everyone's energy and experience to give the best outcome.
"I knew I had to match up to the names on the cast and I wasn't willing to give it anything lesser than my very best. I knew I had to power through, so I put my best foot forward. Despite the physical pain I endured, it gave me memories of a lifetime," he says. The actor plays a character named Arjun in the series.
