During a fight sequence on the sets of Manmohan Desai's Coolie with co-actor Puneet Issar, Big B was supposed to fall on a table first and then on to the ground.

However, due to an error in timing Puneet ended up hitting Big B's abdomen and he landed on the edge of the table leading to internal bleeding. Bachchan was taken to hospital and surgery took place. The recovery took several months. Currently, the 78-year-old actor is busy shooting for his next titled MayDay.

The film also stars Ajay Devgn, Rakul Preet Singh and Angira Dhar, and it marks Ajay's return to direction after Shivaay and U Me Aur Hum. The thriller is expected to release on April 29, 2022. Big B also has Chehre, Brahmastra, Jhund, and an untitled film with Prabhas and Deepika Padukone lined up
