Day 5

Abhishek Bachchan was shooting next door for a commercial and Amitji went to meet him from the sets of Bhoothnath. So, when I met Abhishek, I told him, ''My star Amitji comes to meet you on your sets, so I would also like to invite you on the sets of Bhoothnath and come meet all my stars''.

 

But Abhishek could not make it to sets of Bhoothnath due to his hectic schedule. After some days, I decided to send my chief assistant Katty once again to invite Abhishek. When Katty went on the floor to invite him, he did not notice that the camera was rolling and he was in the field. As a result, they had to retake the shot. Abhishek was so cool, he did not utter a word about the spoilt shot but made a joke out of it and promised to drop in.

Finally, Abhishek managed to visit our set and we were all very happy to have him. He also wore Bhoothnath's robe and asked me for a dialogue sheet. And the next minute, I see Abhishek delivering Amitji's lines 'Tabse ghar legne lega hai jab say tum yeha aeye ho'.

Aman Siddique, the child artiste who plays a significant role in our film, was stunned to see Abhishek doing this. He almost forgot all his dialogues! But the fun was not over. We had another surprise waiting.

Amitji was just stood behind us and watched the fun. We were all speechless at the incident, as we did not know how to react. But that's the day a thought crossed my mind – if I ever make Bhoothnath 2, I will cast Abhishek in it!

Don't be rude or interrupt others who are having a conversation. Ethnic slurs, personal insults and abuses are rather uncool. Criticise, but know where to draw the line. No point putting in personal details or links, we won't publish them. Try and write in English and please, stick to the point!
