Salman Khan gets ear infection in Kashmir, painkillers keep him going

Mumbai: Salman Khan recently flew down to Pahalgam, Kashmir to shoot for the final schedule of Kabir Khan’s ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’. However due to an unexpected ear infection and sinusitis the actor was unable to shoot for two days.

Salman began the shoot on Tuesday, and is on strong pain killers. The spokesperson of the film confirmed the news and said in a statement, “It’s true. Salman Khan is in severe pain and with the help of pain killers, we have started shooting.”

The weather in the valley is extremely cold and Salman is doing his best to not hault the shooting. He shoots his scenes but whenever the pain increases, he takes a break.

Director Kabir Khan headed to the valley a few days prior to Salman’s arrival. The team is expected to shoot there for the next 40 days. Salman and his co-star Nawazuddin Siddiqui will be shooting some high-octane action sequences in the valley. Kareena Kapoor Khan is expected to arrive in Srinagar in a couple of days.

The security in the valley is very tight and when he reached the location, this is how the set up looked like. Here's the video.
