MUMBAI: Salman Khan is in discomfort. The actor has torn a tissue on his back while shooting an action sequence for his forthcoming film Veer.

Sitting relaxed after a busy half hour walk, Salman expressed his discomfort, "I have torn a tissue on my back and the pain is crucifying. I need a lot of painkillers, four a day. And they are so powerful that I feel really drugged."

However, the actor has not slowed his pace. He has been shooting for his TV show Dus Ka Dum everyday since he returned from the London schedule of Vijay Galani’s Veer. To fight the pain, the ever fit Salman is not just banking on medication. He revealed, "I have a yoga teacher who is helping me out and I walk for half an hour. This should help, I hope."

On the other hand, the promos of Salman Khan in his second season of Dus Ka Dum look really promising. The actor is pumped up about his new show.

Salman’s first show of Dus Ka Dum will be telecast on 30 May on Sony Entertainment Television. Although the show will feature the Kapoor sisters of Karisma and Kareena in the first episode, word has it that Mallika Sherawat was the first celebrity guest to have shot with Salman.

The magic of Salman worked wonders the first time round and if it woos audiences once again, Salman can sit pretty with his success, as very few film actors are venturing into the field of hosting television shows.
