Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11: Urvashi Dholakia Injured On Sets, Says ‘I Am Strong-Willed’

Urvashi Dholakia, known for her remarkable performances in the entertainment industry over the decades, is now participating in the celebrity dance reality show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11. Following her impressive first performance, judges Farah Khan, Arshad Warsi, and Malaika Arora were totally impressed. Despite sustaining an injury during rehearsals, Urvashi remains undeterred and demonstrated her determination to deliver her best on the dance floor.

In a conversation with ETimes, Urvashi Dholakia said, “When you take a break from a show like this, it means it’s the end of your journey, as simple as that. The format of the show also doesn’t allow that, I suppose. My point is that one injury is not going to make me weak and stop before I even begin. It is how I’ve always been, very strong-willed.” She mentioned that if the injury had been severe, she might have considered withdrawing from the show. However, since it was something manageable with taping and under the constant supervision of doctors, she decided to continue participating.

Speaking of the limitations post-injury, the actress mentioned, “My injury did not limit me, it’s just limited me to certain moves and movements. Obviously, with two cracks in my toe, I have still pulled an entire water act well. That says a lot by itself.” However, she acknowledged alterations in her daily routine, such as avoiding heels and minimizing outings. Urvashi has confined herself to home and rehearsals, prioritising Jhalak until she fully recovers. She expressed, “My focus and priority are solely on Jhalak for now!”

But how did Urvashi Dholakia get injured on the sets of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11?

Urvashi stated that like any other day, she was practising and was trying to master some of the steps from her upcoming act. While working on acing the steps, she described her heightened excitement, stating, “In the heat of the moment, during the second lift, I landed on my toe. At that point in time, I was in excruciating pain.” The diagnosis revealed that she had suffered “two minor cracks” on her toe. Fortunately, Urvashi’s doctor, who is also a friend, comprehended her situation and joined her at the rehearsal, ensuring her toe was properly taped to prevent further damage.
