Two films old, and Ruslaan Mumtaz has already had two nasty falls.

On the sets of his first film Mera Pehla Pehla Pyar Ruslaan fell straight on his face when his assembled bicycle collapsed under him

"We had to postpone shooting for a month. My entire face was bruised. I was home-bound for a month, " recalls Ruslaan with a shudder.

Now while shooting for his second film, Satish Kaushik's Tere Sang Ruslaan suffered an even nastier fall when he fell of a racing motorbike.

"It was pretty bad and I thought I'll be permanently damaged. Fortunately I'm ok now. But my parents are worried. They're wondering if I'll suffer an accident during every film. I keep telling them not to get superstitious. But you know how parents are, specially moms. "

Would the young actor re-think his acting career if he contines to suffer these accidents?

"No way! It's quite obvious that my two accidents during my two films were just co-incidences. Even if I've another accident during my third film I'm here to stay. . . Maybe I should get myself insured on the sets. "
