Shahid
Kapoor
might
come
across
as
a
serious,
level-headed
guy
for
most
people
but
on
the
sets
he
can
be
quite
a
prankster
-
as
he
scared
the
living
daylights
out
of
Vidya
Balan's
mom
while
shooting
for
Aziz
Mirza's
Kismat
Konnection,
produced
by
Ramesh
Taurani.
Says
Aziz
Mirza's
daughter
and
creative
director
of
KK,
Rahila,
"During
the
outdoor
in
Canada,
Shahid
decided
to
play
a
prank
on
Vidya,
with
whom
he'd
become
good
friends,
during
the
shooting.
Shahid
discovered
Vidya's
weaknesses
she
is
terrified
of
spooky
stories."
One
night,
at
2.30
am,
Shahid
wore
a
horrifying
mask
and
knocked
on
Vidya's
door.
Rahila
continues,
"The
unit
members
collected
to
view
Vidya's
reaction
but
it
was
Vidya's
mother
who
opened
the
door!
Vidya
and
her
mom
were
put
up
in
a
suite
with
a
common
door
and
Shahid
didn't
know
that
the
actress
was
in
the
other
room."
What
happened
next
was
a
scene
out
of
a
comedy
film.
Continues
Rahila,
"It
was
hilarious!
Vidya's
mom
didn't
know
it
was
Shahid
behind
the
mask.
She
thought
he
was
an
intruder,
so
she
held
on
to
him
tight
and
screamed
for
security.
Of
course
everyone
started
explaining
to
Mrs.
Balan
that
it
was
all
Shahid's
plan,
and
he'd
taken
everyone
into
confidence."
The
next
day
Shahid
and
Vishal
Malhotra,
who
plays
Shahid's
friend
in
the
film
and
was
part
of
the
prank,
were
worried
about
facing
mommy
Balan.
Says
Rahila,
"Shahid
and
Vishal
were
like
schoolboys
getting
up
every
time
Vidya's
mom
came
near
them.
Of
course
she
is
quite
a
sport
and
laughed
it
off."
