Shraddha Kapoor gets injured on ‘Eetha’ set, shoot comes to a halt: Report |

After the success of ‘Stree 2’, Shraddha Kapoor is working on ‘Eetha’, which is based on the life of legendary Tamasha performer Vithabai Bhau Mang Narayangaonkar. However, the film’s production reportedly came to a halt last week after the actor injured herself on set, suffering a fracture in the toe of her left foot.According to Mid-Day, Shraddha was in the middle of performing Lavani — the high-energy folk dance closely associated with Narayangaonkar — when she lost her balance and hurt herself. A source told the publication, “Lavani music characteristically has fast-paced beats and a quick tempo. In this number composed by Ajay-Atul, Shraddha, sporting a vibrant Nauvari saree, heavy jewellery, and a kamarpatta, had to perform a series of steps in succession to the beats of the dholki. To look the part of a young Vithabai, the actor has put on over 15 kilos. In one step, she mistakenly put all her weight on her left foot and lost her balance as a result.”The insider added that even though director Laxman Utekar decided to halt filming, Shraddha didn’t want the day to go to waste and suggested focusing on close-up shots instead. “After returning to Mumbai, they began to film on a set at Madh Island, where Shraddha shot some emotional sequences. However, after a couple of days, her pain aggravated, and they had to discontinue the shoot. The unit will regroup two weeks later when she has completely recovered,” the source shared.With Eetha, Shraddha is expected to take on one of the most demanding and emotionally charged roles of her career. The actor, who was last seen in Stree 2: Sarkate Ka Aatank (2024), has been choosing scripts more selectively, gravitating toward characters that push her artistic range.Despite not having a release this year, Shraddha continues to stay connected with her fans through her massive social media following of over 94 million on Instagram. She recently joined the country in celebrating India’s ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025 triumph, writing, “We used to hear the stories about the emotion our parents felt after India won the World Cup in 1983. Thank you for giving us that moment.”
