That Suniel Shetty is a prankster is known to all and sundry. But this is one prank CHOCOLATE producer Ragini will never forget.
Over to Ragini, “We were doing a night shift somewhere in South Mumbai. The shooting was progressing fine. A few minutes later, Suniel came up to me and said that the shooting would’ve to be called off since Emraan has to leave for a party [hosted by Mukesh Bhatt] at a suburban location. I was livid. We had managed the location with great difficulty and imagine the actor wanting to party that night!
“I rushed to Emraan’s van and told him sternly that I wouldn’t let him go till he completes my shoot that night. But Emraan walked out and drove off right in front of my eyes. I was hysterical. I started yelling and screaming. I had decided to abandon the film. It’s better to shelve the project than suffer heartburns, I shouted at the top of my voice.
“That very moment, Suniel, who was standing right behind me, tapped on my shoulder and said, ‘Ma’am, why don’t you turn around for a second?’ I did so and saw Emraan standing right there with Suniel. Both were giggling away like spoilt kids. The entire unit had got together to play this prank on me at Suniel’s behest [she laughs]. But it was no laughing matter then. I would’ve collapsed...,” Ragini recalls.
So the next time you saunter on to Suniel’s sets, let us forewarn you, you might be the next bakra!
