Most actors like to relax in their comfortable vanity vans after every shoot. But while filming for "Phata Poster Nikla Hero", Shahid Kapoor has been going out of his way to mingle with the crew - he plays carrom with the ordinary workers on the set.

If sources are to be believed, Shahid is spending very little time inside his vanity van while waiting for his shots.

"After the pack up, Shahid doesn't immediately rush back home. He has made a carrom gang and he likes playing before he heads home," said the source.

He spends his time with the workers, and between his shots, he relaxes with them.

"He has become friends with the lightmen and the crew members on the set and is bonding over carrom with them. They also tell him about their lives and their problems," the source added.

"Phata Poster Nikla Hero" is a Rajkumar Santoshi film, and it features Ileana D'cruz opposite Shahid.
