Dara Singh's handsome nephew, Shaad Randhawa has emerged a Mohit Suri favourite. After casting him in his previous film, Woh Lamhe, Mohit has repeated Shaad in a
strong supporting role in his forthcoming Awarapan, which hits cinemas on June 29.
Not many know however that Shaad was at the receiving end of everyone's pranks on the sets of Awarapan. It seems Shaad was asked to learn some kung fu moves while
shooting for the Tera Mera Rishta remix video in Bangkok.
After rigorously practicing for a whole day, he realised that he was made a fool of by choreographer
Remo, Mohit and Emraan Hashmi, because kung fu wasn't required for the video!
This is only the tip of the iceberg. Poor Shaad was fooled a second time when he was made to climb high on a rope and practice swinging on it! He was told by action
master Abbas Ali Moghul in a pre-climax action scene that he would have to come crashing through a huge window on the set. After he struggled for an hour he was told
that it was a prank much to his dismay!
When asked, director Mohit Suri laughs, "Shaad is a sincere actor and takes his work rather seriously. This trait leaves him vulnerable to such pranks. I don't think he'll fall
prey to our mischief again!"
