Actor Tanishaa Mukerji recounted a terrifying incident from her debut film Sssshhh, during which she was involved in an accident. Tanishaa said that she fell off a mountain and suffered a brain injury. However, despite challenges, Tanisha continued shooting for the film, often passing out on the sets.

In an interview with News 18, Tanishaa said that the unfortunate incident took place when she was shooting for her debut film. She said, “I was brain damaged. I fell off a mountain and I had a massive concussion. For pretty much one year of my life, I had to go for regular EEGs because you have to check if the swelling in my brain had reduced. It took one year for it to actually come back to its normal size.”

She continued, “I didn’t tell anybody this but I did have a lot of difficulty because I was shooting my first film. I used to literally shoot for 2 hours and sleep for 3 hours. I would literally shoot for 2 hours because it would be so hectic and I would pass out. I wouldn’t be able to stay awake because my brain was exhausted.”

Tanishaa Mukerji shared that during filming, she faced difficulties but was grateful for the support of the producers. Despite her struggles, she continued shooting because stopping the shoot would have affected the project. The actor admitted she might not have made the best decisions or performed her role to the fullest after her accident. She noticed a big difference between her first and second film schedules. Tanisha also mentioned gaining weight and feeling slower in her movements and expressions. When watching the film, she wondered why she seemed to repeat the same actions and expressions.

She said, “The audiences don’t know this so they’re just judging you. Not everybody in the film industry was aware of this so they’re just judging you because that’s what they do.”

Festive offer

Sssshhh also starred Dino Morea. The film was released in 2003.
