During the shoot of Firoz Nadiadwala's Fool And Final a few days ago, Shahid survived a near fatal accident at Filmistan Studios.

A few days before the Filmistan incident, Shahid was shooting a stunt for the film in Dubai, where he had to pedal a BMX bike down the face of a 16-floor building over a long cloth that stretched to the ground.

Midway through the shooting, the cloth snapped from its clasps leaving Shahid in mid-air., Kareena was overtly worried when this happened and Ahmed promised her that Shahid was in safe hands thereafter. Later, another incident happened at Filmistan .

Ahmed explains, "It was a song sequence. There were 16 mounted pulleys and 120 men pulling up many dancers, including Shahid.

Never before in the history of Indian cinema has such a dangerous and exciting dance sequence been picturised. While shooting, the left wire of Shahid's pulley suddenly snapped. Luckily, he was not dreaming.

He is very active and agile and immediately held on to the right wire of the pulley to balance himself."

When contacted, Ahmed clarified, "The cloth had been hung so that Shahid would not feel the great height he was coming down from.

Shahid has a vertigo problem and is scared of heights – just like Aamir Khan.When the cloth snapped, I almost fainted. There was a pulley holding Shahid from the top, and there was also a safety net below. I wondered how he would manage. Lekin ho gaya."

During the entire shot, Bebo was constantly on the phone with Ahmed. She was literally in tears.

"She was very scared and Ahmed kept assuring her that nothing would happen. To compound her tension, Shahid did not speak to her until the shot was okayed," Ahmed says.

Fool And Final stars Sharmila Tagore, Sunny Deol, Jackie Shroff, Viveik Oberoi, Shahid Kapoor, Ayesha Takia, Sameera Reddy, Paresh Rawal, Arbaaz Khan and Chunky Pandey
