Looks like playing pranks on the sets is kind of a relaxation strategy adopted by the ‘oh so overworked actors'. This time it was actor Manav Gohil who decided to pull a fast
one on the entire unit of his Star One show, Betiyaan Apni Yaa... Paraaya Dhan.
Manav Gohil, the new entrant in the show decided explains, "As the shoot was on, I had to take the director under confidence. First I said that I wanted to go back home for
some silly reason. When that did not work, I managed to rope in a few of my-costars and put up a false fight between us".
The people involved acted so well that everyone believed when Manav declared that either it would be he or the co-star, who would remain in the serial. Having no idea that it
was a prank, everyone got worried. The production team even came forward to put and end to the fight.
"Then I asked the executive producer to gather everyone, as I had to make a serious announcement" chuckled Manav. When every one was together, Manav announced that
it was a mere prank played by him. Everyone had a hearty laugh and the production team was relieved.
"I usually do so whenever the shoot gets boring", adds Manav who is playing a negative character on the show. Well, carry on Manav. Till no one is actually hurt, everything
is fine.
