Running with the bulls

While shooting at Benaras ghat for an action sequence,the crew managed to provoke a bull that raged on the films set.

Debutant actor Abhishek Anand,who features in Shakur Sirs Chakradhaar co-starring Urvashi Sharma,Vidya Malvade and Darshan Jariwala,faced one of his worst fears during the shoot of the film. While shooting at Benaras ghat for an action sequence,the crew managed to provoke a bull that raged on the films set.

Still reeling from the episode,Anand recalls,We were shooting a chase sequence in a very small lane where I had fire shots from my gun. When I fired two shots,a bull sitting nearby heard them and suddenly raged towards the sets. The camera crew started running helter-skelter with the equipment since we didnt want the mad bull to destroy it. I ran for my life too,fell down and bruised my leg. Finally,some locals came to the crews rescue and calmed the bull but the shoot had to be cancelled for the day.

Abhishek adds ,The next day,we went to that lane again to findthe same bull sitting there. So we shot it in some other bylane.

Chakradhaar,a story of a mans fight against corruption,is set to release on June 15.
