Sunny Deol, who is directing Ghayal Once Again, was in for a rude shock when the city woke up to an unexpected downpour on Saturday. The actor, on reaching Kamalistan Studios, saw his unit hands running helter- skelter as rain water started dripping onto the lavish set.
One hears that they did their level best to salvage the situation, but to no avail. It is estimated that the losses may run into crores. Dan Bradley, the foreign action director and the rest of the foreign crew that consisted of nearly 300 members could do nothing but sit back and watch as water played havoc on their set.
To add to their woes, another set standing at Madh Island also suffered. A distressed unit hand said, "Our set at Madh Island has also suffered extensive damage due to gusty winds and rain. We were to shoot there from March 8 onwards, but our shooting will need to deferred because it will take a while for repairs."
It is also learnt that the actor-filmmaker had hired a hundred vehicles and was planning to shoot in a South Mumbai location yesterday because permission for such expansive shoots are only given for Sundays when the streets are deserted and the traffic situation is under control. However, because of the mishap suffered in the suburbs and the cloudy, overcast skies through the better part of yesterday, even this shooting was cancelled.
