Our iconic actor Amitabh Bachchan is all thanks to his turban for saving his life after he was kicked on the head by a camel while shooting for the film, ‘Eklavya’.
The 64-year-old actor, playing a royal guard in Eklavya, a period film about palace intrigue, was shooting a scene in which he had to pass through a herd of 400 camels. One of the camels suddenly landed a kick on Bachchan’s head, leaving him dizzy for a few minutes.
“Mr Bachchan kept saying, ‘The turban saved my life’,†director Vidhu Vinod Chopra was quoted as saying by a daily. “I would have never believed it happened, but then we spotted the camel in action on the monitor.â€
Not only the actor himself and the director, all of us are thankful to the turban who saved our gem of Bollywood !!
