Whilst on the topic of Shalin’s dancing skills, not many know that, while he was shooting for a film in Rajasthan, he chose to avoid a body double and went for a stunt on his own. He had to jump from a height. Unfortunately, he landed on the ground hard with a big rock rolling over his leg. His Bollywood dream ended there when he just could not move even an inch. So much so that, he had to be transported immediately to Mumbai for his treatment. Upon seeing his condition, some of the biggest sports doctors in the country told him that he wouldn't be able to ever dance again. Shalin being the go-getter that he is, took this as a challenge and went ahead and won a couple dance reality shows!
Speaking exclusively to Mid Day Online, Shalin’s father Brijmohan Bhanot shared the details. He said, “We were concerned whether he will ever be able to walk properly again. The doctor said that he will ensure Shalin can walk normally after the treatment. And, after months of therapy, we were still afraid if Shalin would never be able to run, let alone dance. When Shalin learnt this, he wasn't distraught but took it as a challenge to prove everybody wrong. He did intensive physiotherapy, buckled steel rods & heavy weights & strengthened his ligament. He later participated in a dance reality show & he won the trophy. He has always managed to surprise us with his determination. When he sets his mind onto something, he surely knows he will make it happen. He has always been like this. He doesn't believe in self-loathing. Give him any task at hand that challenges him, he will do it. That is Shalin for you”!
