Rohit Purohit: I was scared because the cut was quite close to my eye
The phrase “the show must go on” holds true, even in the face of injuries — a lesson Rohit Purohit, who plays Armaan in Rajan Shahi’s Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, recently demonstrated. Despite sustaining an injury late last evening, the actor resumed the shoot for his daily soap the very next day.
The incident occurred when Rohit injured himself above his eyebrow while searching through his car’s boot. The wound began bleeding heavily. He initially tried to manage it with a tissue, but the bleeding persisted. Fortunately, his wife, Sheena Bajaj, was with him, as the couple had plans for a romantic dinner. She promptly took charge of the situation.
Sheena shares, “I immediately cleaned his wound with an antiseptic solution, and thankfully, the bleeding stopped. I went to a nearby shop to get some ice, which I applied to reduce the swelling. Then I applied ointment from our medical kit. I’m glad Rohit stayed calm, which made handling the situation much easier. I also urge everyone to keep a medical kit in their car for emergencies like this.”
Rohit adds, “The cut was right above my left eyebrow. As an actor, your face is an essential asset, so it was quite alarming. The wound was deep and extremely painful. I was scared because the cut was dangerously close to my eye. Thankfully, my eye wasn’t harmed. I’m grateful Sheena was there to help me immediately. I’m doing fine now and back to doing what I love most — facing the camera.”
The actor, who has been part of shows such as Shaurya Aur Suhani, Aise Karo Naa Vidaa, Sanksaar Laxmi, Chadragupta Maurya, Arjun, Razia Sultan, Porus, Dil Toh Happy Hai Ji and Udaariyaan, joined Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai to play the new Armaan following the ouster of Shehzada Dhami in March this year. The latter appeared in the ongoing 18th season of Bigg Boss but was evicted on the 27th day after entering on day one.
