Gauhar becomes scapegoat

Says Gauhar, “I am celebrating the success of Ranbir’s movies. During the shooting of Rocket Singh, we got along like a house on fire. We played pranks on each other and also the entire crew present. There were times when I too was made a scapegoat by the crew.”

“Let me tell you one such incident. During a scene, the guy gang on the sets including Ranbir Kapoor, director Shimit Amin and a senior actor ganged up against me and played a prank on me. The scene required everyone to gather around a dining table and suddenly burst out laughing. The director was hell bent on shooting a natural laughter so he went and whispered something in the senior actor’s ear.”

Then he asked Gauhar to serve everyone present. As she went about doing her chore, the senior actor looked at her deviously and mouthed Prem Naam Hai Mera, the famous dialogue mouthed by villain Prem Chopra. Gauhar got so scared that she dropped the plates and ran to the other side of the room. The gang burst out laughing and the scene came out very naturally.

Says Gauhar, “I was so very scared when I heard that. I dropped the plates and ran away. When I realised it was a prank that they played on me, even I joined them in the laughter as these things keep happening and even I have played many pranks on people. In fact, my friends and family have nicknamed me Jerry from Tom and Jerry. But believe me I am a fun-loving person and its all done in good taste. I would never do anything to annoy someone.”
