As
reported
by
Oneindia,
last
monsoon,
the
shoots
of
'Lapataganj"
(SAB
TV)
were
shelved
due
to
heavy
rains
and
the
situation
turned
terrible.
The
channel
was
falling
short
of
episodes
that
could
be
shown
on
television.
Having
learnt
a
lesson
last
year,
the
shoots
of
the
show
are
being
readied
well
in
advance
this
year,
in
anticipation
of
the
rains.
A
source
says,
“We
were
not
alert
last
monsoon
as
our
show
had
just
started.
Unlike
other
shows,
'Lapataganj" shoots
do
not
take
place
within
a
palace
or
indoors
where
we
can
continue
even
in
monsoon.
As
we
have
to
shoot
the
maximum
number
of
our
scenes
outdoors,
it
becomes
a
problem
during
the
rains.
But
this
time
we
are
alert
and
getting
prepared
to
keep
a
number
of
episodes
handy
which
can
be
used
during
our
monsoon
holidays."
“We
have
already
shot
for
6
extra,
urgent
episodes
till
now
which
translates
into
almost
one
and
the
half
week"s
telecasts
without
needing
to
shoot.
As
it"s
just
beginning
to
rain,
we
can"t
be
more
careful.
I
don"t
know
what
will
happen
next.
We
are
just
trying
to
cope
with
calamity
well
in
advance."
adds
source.
Well,
we
wish
the
'Lapataganj"
team
every
luck
in
overcoming
the
problems
created
by
the
Mumbai
monsoon.
