We can certainly call it a gift from President George Bush to the entire team of Abdul Samee Siddiqui’s forthcoming film Horn Ok Pleassss…. Some time back they had gone to Dubai for a shooting schedule and were shooting non-stop for days together. Naturally everybody was tired and in need of a break. On the contrary, director/co-producer Rakesh Sarang wanted to finish the schedule as quickly as possible.
But looks like that luck was with others. George Bush came to visit the City of Gold and for security reasons, city came to a stand still. Shooting had to be cancelled and this is when Rakesh Sarang decided to humor his cast and crew. Comments Muzzamil, “he would turn down all our requests for a break, but suddenly he came to us and said that there is no shooting for the day. We were surprised, but didn’t wan tot look the gift horse in the mouth. So everybody jumped at this offer and then he even treated us all to an excellent lunch. The menu was selected by Rakesh personally and he made sure everyone is having good time.” It was later that everybody realized the true reason behind this sudden off, but who cares. As long as it was entertaining and fun.
