Speaking to mukesh chhabra on Mashable India, vikramaditya motwane recalled the shooting experience, saying, “We came to Dalhousie in March. We shot for two days and Ranveer hurt his back. He said he would be fine. The next day, we shot a scene where he takes out the bullet from his waist… now Ranveer has worked himself up to a frenzy. I want to feel the pain here and want to emote it on screen etc. He asked me, ‘Sir what do I put here? I want to feel the pain.’ I said just act.”


Ranveer Singh’s Method Acting in ‘Lootera’

Ranveer Singh came up with an approach in an attempt to faithfully depict the pain of his character. “So what he did was take some black paper clips and pinned them near the waist and then started running up and down the mountain to get into the moment because he has been shot and he has to come in sweating. He came then we shot the entire scene. By the end of the day when we had shot the entire thing, he finally took out that clips. He has been feeling all that pain over there. He did not realize that his back was in spasm," said Motwane.


The director continued, “He felt the pain here, but not on his back. He just collapsed and had to be taken out. We had to chopper him out on the next day from Dalhousie, so that schedule got canceled.”


Meanwhile, Vikramaditya most recently directed the thriller film 'CTRL', which featured ananya Panday. Released on Netflix on october 4th, the film received mostly good reviews.
