The shooting of Poojai starring Vishal and Shruti Haasan has come to a halt as Vishal became severely injured during a stunt sequence. The stunt sequence was being shot at a private studio in Saligramam. Poojai is an action-masala flick directed by Hari and produced by Vishal. This is the third production venture for Vishal. In the stunt sequence, Vishal had to deliver a blow to a stunt artist, but the stunt artist escaped getting hit and Vishal's hand hit a metal object that was behind the artist. Vishal's middle finger got hurt during this process and he was rushed to a hospital. The doctors advised Vishal to take one week rest and administered 14 stitches in his injured finger. Hope Vishal gets well soon.
