It seems that actress Sushmita Sen, doesn't just dazzle audience, she charms snakes too.

When a snake slithered onto a movie set scaring crew members, Sushmita didn't flinch, instead she bowed before it and chanted Hindu hymns to calm the reptile.

Filmmaker Tanuja Chandra told the Mumbai Mirror newspaper in an interview published on Tuesday that as they spotted the snake, which lay coiled at the edge of a dance floor of a pub they were using as a set, Sushmita told everyone not to disturb it and it would leave.

''As she went closer, the snake hissed. We all moved back, but Sushmita went down on her knees and closed her eyes. She bowed before the snake and chanted some mantras,'' recounted Tanuja.

Tanuja said the unit members were surprised when ''the snake didn't move from that place for a few hours. Later it left quietly.''

The former Miss Universe, who plays a rock star in the movie Zindagi Rocks, said she wasn't afraid.

''The snake is considered very auspicious so I asked everyone not to get scared of Nag Devta (snake god). I assured Tanuja that with the blessings of Nag Devta, the film is bound to rock,'' she said.
