John Abraham fractures hand on film set

John Abraham has fractured his hand while undertaking a stunt for his new movie.

According to Hindustan Times, the incident occurred during the shooting of action film Force.

Producer Vipul Shah commented: "His hand could have been seriously injured had he not worked so hard on his physique and strength.

"But it's important that John recovers so I'll shuffle the schedule around a bit. We'll shoot the easier scenes first and can film the more intense action sequences later."

Abraham, who suffered the injury during a free fall, is said to have insisted on continuing filming due to the costs involved in constructing an expensive set for the project.

The film, a remake of Southern hit Kakha Kakha, is being shot on location in Mumbai, Pune and Manali.
