For the unversed, in the current story track, Elahi wants Jordan to divorce her, but he refuses by tearing up the divorce papers. Elahi doesn’t know that it is a result of a secret deal struck between Jordan and Jahaan. As the tension between Jordan and Jahaan rises, their rivalry leads to Jordan pointing a revolver at Jahaan. Bringing this action-packed sequence to life demanded an understanding of how to handle a real revolver and training behind the scenes. To ensure an authentic portrayal, Gautam decided to familiarise himself with the weapon so that he looks natural wielding it onscreen.

Talking about the gun sequence, Gautam Singh Vig said, “I've always been a big fan of the action genre and love shooting on-screen gunfire sequences. I’m so glad that Junooniyatt brought the opportunity to enliven an action and drama-packed scene. As an actor, it was a test to infuse this intense scene with authenticity, making sure that the revolver in my hand was more than just a mere prop. I think the viewers are very intelligent and they can sense the ease or the tension in our body language. Hence, we opted for a real revolver.”

However, he also maintained that everyone’s protection was their prime agenda. “Ensuring safety precautions were paramount for our entire team.” He concluded by adding, “Moreover, operating a revolver isn't a walk in the park—it's a challenge that's equally rewarding and enjoyable. We all had so much fun shooting this interesting scene. Thankfully, I had done some target practice earlier so that experience came to use here.”

Junooniyatt promises to tell a heartfelt tale of music, love, emotions, and passion, and it airs from Monday to Friday at 9 pm only on Colors.
