Actress Leya Mammen, who played a key antagonist in Officer on Duty, revealed that she suffered an injury while filming an intense action sequence.

Speaking to Filmibeat Malayalam, Leya, who played the character of Celine Joan in the film, shared that despite taking precautions, accidents still happened on set.

"I was injured during one of the scenes. We ensure that stunt scenes are performed carefully, especially around senior artists like Chackochan (Kunchacko Boban). But accidents do happen. I received more hits than I gave. After one scene, I had a large bump on my head and had to be hospitalized. I was in so much pain that I cried," she recalled. However, she added that the overall shooting experience was fun.
