Rain,
poor
light,
ailing
actors
and
starry
tantrums
have
led
to
delay
or
calling
off
of
many
shoots.
But
here's
one
incident
when
the
threat
was
from
a
family
of
slithery
creatures
instead.
There
was
a
scene
in
Ashok
Thakeria's
Dhamaal,
directed
by
Indra
Kumar,
in
which
actors
Riteish
Deshmukh,
Arshad
Warsi,
Aashish
Chowdhury
and
Javed
Jaffrey
were
required
to
be
atop
a
broken
bridge
at
Borivalli
National
Park.
Now,
as
if
that
wasn't
risky
enough,
there
was
a
family
of
four-five
huge
snakes
resting
under
a
few
boulders
right
near
the
bridge.
The
reptiles
were
discovered
when
the
camera
was
rolling,
hence,
the
actors
had
no
clue
about
the
danger.
A
few
lightmen
kept
guard
while
the
shot
was
taken
undisturbed.
According
to
a
source,
the
snakes
were
perilously
close
to
the
actors
and
had
they
made
the
slightest
movement,
the
camera
would
have
caught
a
different
drama
altogether.
But
had
the
actors
known
beforehand
about
the
snakes
they
would
have
created
a
drama
anyways.
So
all's
well
that
ends
well.
