Looks like snakes have a way of following Ashutosh Gowariker. During the making of Lagaan, the unit found a poisonous snake.

And now, during the shoot of his latest Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey in Sawantwadi, a snake crawled on to the set while foreign actors were present.

Saya a unitwala, "Ashu was very calm and handled the situation well. They waited till the snake got out of their way and resumed shooting."
