NEW DELHI: Late actor Amjad Khan was quite a famous name during his era but did you know when the actor met with a serious accident it was megastar Amitabh Bachchan who came for this rescue?
Yes, you heard that right!
Amjad’s wife Shehla Khan recalled the whole incident which happened ahead of the shooting of his film The Great Gambler (1979).
The actor needed surgery which was known as tracheostomy (a surgical procedure to ease breathing) and Amitabh had then given his signature in hospital documents for the doctors to perform a tracheostomy on Amjad.
Sharing the horrifying incident, she said that the accident took place at Sawantwadi, near Goa, when she was 6 months pregnant and it was an extremely serious accident. While she was still dealing with the accident, Amjad was gasping for breath and also had internal bleeding as 13 of his ribs and also his femur bone were broken. Even though his condition was more serious, he was 'more worried' about her and losing their child.
