MUMBAI: Actor Faisal Khan, who has recently entered Chandragupta Maurya, had an injury before he started shooting for the show. While rehearsing for one his shows, he slammed his heel when he was dancing. Hence, he damaged his ligaments.

Our source informs us, 'He had a grade 2 tear and hence is in constant need of physiotherapy. In fact, Faisal was supposed to travel to Indonesia, which too had to be cancelled along with other travel commitments.'

The makers of his current show, Swastik Productions, too delayed his entry by a few days and have made sure that the actor is being given ample rest between shots and not being asked to do anything too heavy so that he can recover as quickly as possible!

When we reached out to Faisal, he confirmed, 'Yes, it is unfortunate and I am in a lot of pain. However, I am trying my best to fulfill my commitments and continue working. I am being taken care of well on sets and with the physio. I am hoping that I am back running and dancing very soon!'
