We have now learnt that Ronit was shooting an action sequence, barefoot,surrounded by thorns in the middle of National Park in Delhi. During a choreographed tussle between him and another actor, Ronit injured himself and got 17 stitches in order to continue shooting.

Speaking about this experience, Ronit Roy said in a statement, “It was the most difficult chase sequence towards the end of our shoot, while we shot for the climax in the National Park in Delhi. It was not just me, but the entire unit was running through that forest.”

Filmmaker Sudhir Mishra made his digital debut with Hostages featuring Ronit Roy, Tisca Chopra, Parvin Dabas and Aashim Gulati. It is an adaptation of the popular Israeli show with the same name.

Talking about the show, Mishra said, “As a storyteller, you do not mimic a show. You keep the core of the story and treat it with your own signature, without tampering the narrative. That is what I did in the show. One of the interesting parts of the story is the female lead (played by Tisca) which I find to be a bold character.”
