Bipasha Basu
Bipasha Basu has suffered a freak accident when a piece of gravel got stuck in her eardrum when she was shooting an action scene.
Bipasha said: "We were doing a heavy duty action scene when this gravel went right inside my ear. I had to be taken to Leelavati hospital, where it had to be sucked out."
It wasn't on the surface. it went right in and I couldn't move because there was the danger that it would go in deeper and pierce the eardrums. First I tried to shake it out. Then when that didn't work I decided to let a doctor do the needful."
As it happened last Sunday no doctor was available immediately and Bipasha had to wait three hours.
She explained: "The producer and director tried everything. We finally headed towards Leelavati. It was John [Abraham] who got an old ENT specialist friend of his to check me out. the sweet doctor was at another hospital but drove down to Leelavati. At 4.30, he finally put me out of my misery."
