Narrow escape for Abhi and Ash
It was a real narrow escape for Abhi and Ash on the sets of Mani Ratnam’s Raavan. Mani Ratnam’s Raavan has been in the news but not for pleasant reasons really. Earlier it was the director having chest pain and the shootings being postponed and now a tusker creates trouble turns dangerous. Shooting has been on for the film in the jungles of Kerala and Abhi and Ash have surely been enjoying their time together in the serene locales. However the other day was one of shock. A tusker on the sets of the film went totally out of control and killed the mahout, destroyed a lot of property including equipment like lights and props. Abhi and Ash had a very narrow escape. Blocking the road, the tusker prevented the crew from going back to the hotel. It was after a great ordeal which lasted for a long time that the forest authorities could bring the big monster under control.
The forest authorities made arrangements for the crew including our very own Abhi and Ash to move to a safer location. Hoping that there are no more untoward incidents and that Mani Ratnam’s Raavan finishes the schedules on time and hits the theatres. With this incident having send a terrible shock wave everyone on the sets too would want the film to be completed as soon as possible.
