Saira
Banu:
Saira
Banu,
the
iconic
Bollywood
actress,
had
a
remarkable
journey
in
the
film
industry,
and
one
of
her
unforgettable
experiences
was
during
the
shooting
of
"Junglee" in
the
heavenly
outdoors
of
Srinagar,
Kashmir.
The
film
featured
the
timeless
song
"Kashmir
Ki
Kali
Hoon
Main,"
which
was
to
be
picturized
amidst
the
breathtaking
Nishat
and
Shalimar
gardens.
However,
it
wasn't
all
smooth
sailing
for
the
young
actress.
Saira
Banu
recalls
overcoming
stage
fright
with
Shammi
Kapoor
help
Taking
to
Instagram,
Saira
Bnau
shared
a
throwback
video
from
the
set
of
Junglee.
She
penned
a
note:
"There
were
thousands
of
tourists
in
the
garden
mainly
foreigners
roaming
around
and
photographing
themselves.
The
shooting
areas
were
carefully
cordoned
off
to
simplify
the
shooting
work."
She
then
said,
"This
of
course
was
the
first
time
that
I
faced
such
crowds
and
the
first
time.
In
the
song,
there
is
a
sequence
where
Shammiji
is
very
angry
with
me
and
I
turn
around
and
I
pick
up
his
shoe
and
sing
"Pyar
Peh
Gussa
Karte
Ho.
Tera
Gussa
Humko
Pyaara
Hain".
"Now
as
luck
would
have
it
I
couldn't
turn
around
and
do
the
movement
properly
so
I
was
getting
into
a
fix.
Eventually
seeing
so
many
people
around
me
I
broke
down
into
tears.
My
mother
ran
to
me
sympathetically
hugging
me
and
telling
me
Beta
"I
always
told
you
this
acting
medium
is
not
for
you,
I
tried
my
best
to
stop
you,
we
have
just
started
this
shoot
and
it
will
be
no
harm
if
we
can
pack
up
our
bags
and
give
this
up".
Saira
further
said:
"Subodh
Daa
will
not
take
it
amiss.
Let
us
go".
Meanwhile,
Shammiji
secretly
winked
an
eye
at
Appaji
and
scolded
me,
"What
is
this?
If
you
want
to
be
shy
and
then
break
down
like
this
you
should
have
been
at
home
in
a
Burkha!"
This
made
me
howl
and
cry
further,
But
then
in
a
while,
I
pulled
up
my
Dupatta
around
my
waistline
in
a
show
of
defiance
and
uttered
"Main
Karke
Dikhaugi".
"I
must
say
Shammiji
was
a
darling
to
give
me
that
'push' towards
braving
it
in
front
of
the
crowds
and
Subodh
Uncle
took
me
aside
and
shared
this
confidence
"You
know
Shammi
is
so
good
in
his
musical
numbers
that
we
directors
give
him
all
the
songs
in
our
movies
and
only
shared
duets
with
the
heroines.
He
is
also
so
good
at
doing
disguises
in
his
roles
but
he
has
been
so
kind
to
us
and
you
that
you
have
been
giving
us
three
solo
songs
to
do
and
a
highlight
disguise
scene
of
a
young
Sadhu
who
tricks
the
hero.
He
helped
me
so
much
in
"JUNGLEE".
Now,
there
is
a
very
funny
and
interesting
incident
that
took
place
while
shooting
the
song,
I'll
talk
about
it
tomorrow" she
added.
