Ajay Devgn, producer
of Helicopter Eela, reportedly
decided to wait for Sarkar to recover fully before they start the
post-production work on the film. The director, who shot for Amitabh Bachchan’s
cameo in the film, while he was down with dengue, was discharged from hospital
yesterday (Aug 23). Reportedly, he had taken special permission from hospital
to shoot the scenes with Big B. As the megastar had already given the date of
Aug 14, and could not accommodate, the director decided to leave treatment
mid-way and shoot the cameo.
According to a
leading daily, Devgn made provisions of an ambulance at stand-by along
with a doctor at the Andheri studio premises, where the shoot took place. Also,
since Ajay was not in town the day shoot was taking place, wife Kajol made sure
that the shooting schedule ran smoothly and Sarkar got exactly what he
required. The daily further stated that Pradeep still had the IV drip needle
inserted while he was completing Bachchan's shoot.
