Rami Malek, star of Bohemian Rhapsody and now an Academy Award-winning actor, celebrated the biggest night of his life on Sunday, although it did not take a small step. The actor dropped after accepting his Best Actor trophy in a lead role and asked for help from paramedics.

The photos of the night show Rami surrounded by neon orange bags of the paramedics team, sitting in his chair and grimacing with pain. He makes a fake but funny head at someone behind him as he wields his trophy. See the pictures here:

Rami won his first ever Oscar every Sunday for his portrayal of Queen Freddie Mercury singer in Bohemian Rhapsody. Addressing the scene, Malek said, "I may not have been the obvious choice, but I guess it worked. The fact that I'm celebrating it and this story is with you tonight is proof that we yearn for such stories, "Malek said. The actor beat Christian Bale, Bradley Cooper, Viggo Mortensen and William Dafoe for the coveted prize. Malek is only the second actor of Arab origin nominated for an Oscar, after Lawrence's star of Arabia, Omar Sharif. Malek is the first to win, reported CNN.

In his thank you speech, the actor added, "I am the son of Egyptian immigrants, an American of the first generation. And part of my story is being written right now. And I could not be more grateful to each one of you and all those who believed in me for this moment. It is something that I will cherish for the rest of my life.

In his speech, he did not mention the film's director, Bryan Singer, who was fired from the Bohemian Rhapsody group on charges of badual misconduct, revealed The Hollywood Reporter.
