collapsed on the sets on Friday and hit his head. He was rushed to the hospital. According to the scribe of the movie, composer

Ratheesh Vega

, “He fainted and suffered a mild head injury after hitting against a metal object. He was immediately taken to a private hospital and the team has taken a break for five days as he needs to rest,” says Ratheesh.

Jayasurya had been shooting the

fight sequences

of Thrissur Pooram, his first mass action movie, for the past 10 days. “I was really exhausted and in the morning when I went to the location, I realised that I cannot do the action scenes as I couldn’t raise my hands,” the actor recollects, adding that the team decided to shoot an emotional scene and during the take, he collapsed.

“Somehow, I couldn’t take the sudden drift. Maybe because I was tired. I had a blackout, fell right on my back and sustained a head injury,” he says. At the hospital, he adds that, he had a thorough check up and was kept under observation for two hours. “The shoot will continue after a break, as it is Onam as well,” he says. The shoot of Thrissur Pooram, directed by Rajesh Mohanan, has been happening at Binanipuram, Kochi.
