Television star Rakesh Bedi, on Monday,  took to Instagram and posted a video in which he revealed that he was stuck in a landslide in Himachal Pradesh a few days back. The actor said that while trying to move a boulder, he broke his finger.

In the video, he said, “You must have heard how Shimla, Himachal Pradesh are all badly affected by landslides. Such huge mountains are coming down heavily. The roads and streets are all stuck, so many vehicles are stuck in the mountains. I went to Solan two weeks ago, for a lecture on acting that I had to deliver. When we were returning, we were told that the main highway is stuck due to a landslide and we may take a shortcut.”

He further mentioned, "When we took that shortcut, a huge boulder fell right ahead of us. Thank God it did not fall on our car, otherwise I'd have been. So when I tried to become a He-Man, and remove the boulder from the road, it moved ahead but rolled back on my finger. My finger was badly hurt and half of the finger dangled, it was so badly hurt. It has healed to a major extent now. Had it been a little bigger injury, the finger would have been off my hands. The road was later cleared with the help of a JCB machine.”

Meanwhile,  after the tragic landslide in the Summer Hill area of the rain-battered Shimla district of Himachal Pradesh on August 14, security and disaster relief forces continued their search operation for the seventh consecutive day. 

The toll in Monday’s temple collapse incident increased to 17 with rescue teams recovering one more body on Sunday."Today is the 7th day of the search and rescue operation at Summer Hill area. So far, we have recovered 17 bodies, and we are searching for other three victims. Teams of SDRF, NDRF and Indian Army are present at the spot," Roop Sharan, an inspector with NDRF said.
