Bollywood filmmaker and choreographer Farah Khan recently visited actors Murali Sharma and Ashwini Kalsekar’s home for her cooking vlog with her cook, Dilip. During the vlog, Farah took a trip down memory lane, recalling several fun incidents from the sets of Main Hoon Na, including a stunt mishap that left Shah Rukh Khan rolling on the floor with laughter.
Main Hoon Naa’s stunt mishap that left Shah Rukh Khan in splits
Murali, who played Captain Khan in the film, recalled how Farah, unimpressed with his performance, called him out in front of nearly 250 people on the set, leaving him embarrassed. He said, “On my first day, we were shooting the scene with Suniel Shetty where I welcome him. On the mike, Farah says, ‘Murali, what are you doing, darling? What is this Maqbool kind of acting? Itna realistic mat kar. Tu Maqbool karke aa raha hai na?’ In front of 250 people.” Farah then revealed that she had even asked Naseeruddin Shah to do more “commercial acting”.
Farah and Murali then recalled a stunt mishap that left Shah Rukh Khan in splits. Murali said, “I had to fly only till the first floor.” Farah added, “At that time, the quality of harnesses wasn’t very good and people didn’t really know how to use them properly. He just had to get out of the car while hanging onto the door. But Murali and the door both flew up.”
Murali continued, “Everyone started laughing. That was my first time on a harness. When Shah Rukh sir came, he was shown the entire shot. He rolled on the floor laughing.”
