Reel action turned real on Zee's Time Bomb sets on Monday. Baddie Akashdeep Saigal, who plays the terrorist Usman in the weekly serial, crashed through a french window and suffered deep cuts on his head and hands, and had to be rushed to hospital. Akash was enacting an action scene with Time Bomb hero Rajeev Khandelwal at the Aram Studios in Goregaon in suburban Mumbai when the mishap occurred. According to Akash, Rajeev was supposed to push him through the window and effect a crash. But instead of a simulated crash, Akash actually crashed into the glass, cutting himself badly. Unit members rushed him to the Gokuldham Hospital in Goregaon, where his cuts were stitched up. But Akash being Akash, refused to allow the medicos to chop off his long tresses to dress up the wound. "How could I? They are my identity, I need them for my look in the show," he insists. Akash was back on the sets on Tuesday. Work doesn't come to a standstill for this actor who is also rehearsing for a dance show for Zee and completing the shooting for his directorial debut film, and also preparing to go to Dubai this month end for promoting Time Bomb. Akash has a history of being in accidents. Last year, while playing Ansh, he accidentally sprained co star Gauri Pradhan's hand during the shooting of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi. At that time, Gauri had to be rushed to hospital after she fainted on the sets.
