There"s
something
about
producer
Yash
Patnaik
that
he"s
not
proving
to
be
popular
with
large
creatures.
Not
too
long
ago,
a
camel
gave
tough
time
to
Patnaik
and
his
crew
of
Rang
badalti
odhani.
This
time,
it"s
a
pachyderm
that"s
troubled
Patnaik
during
the
shoot
of
his
other
show
Jamunia.
Soon
viewers
will
get
to
see
the
wedding
of
Jamunia
and
Jai
Thakur.
Patnaik
left
no
stone
unturned
in
his
bid
to
make
this
a
grand
affair.
The
Beyond
Dreamz
CEO
arranged
as
many
as
800
junior
artists
from
Raipur,
Kwardha,
Vilaspur
and
Bhilai.
Also,
the
baarat
required
five
white
horses
and
an
obnoxious
elephant,
which
was
brought
from
Bilaspur,
a
good
300
kms
away
from
the
location
of
shoot.
While
the
other
mammals
co-operated,
the
pachyderm
(elephants)
gave
the
unit
a
hard
time.
The
elephant
was
transported
in
a
truck
but
mid-way
through
the
journey,
the
mahouts
decided
to
give
the
elephant
a
bath.
Surprisingly,
the
mammal
refused
to
move
again
after
the
bath
and
the
crew
had
to
leave
it
behind.
A
second
elephant
was
arranged
but
he
too
panicked
during
the
wedding
scene
unable
to
bear
the
noise
of
firecrackers.
As
a
result,
the
shoot
got
delayed
further
by
four
hours.
Confirming
the
news,
Patnaik
says,
“Yes,
we
did
face
problem
shooting
with
the
elephant.
Overall,
things
panned
out
smoothly.
We
arranged
for
as
many
as
800
junior
artists.
It
was
a
real
grand
affair
and
one
that
didn"t
cost
us
much.
Had
we
shot
the
same
in
Mumbai,
we
could
have
easily
spent
over
Rs,
20
lakhs."
