Her brilliant performance in the 1993 thriller ‘Baazigar’ of the actress is one of the most special films of her brilliant career. The film made his first film and showed his talent with Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol. The brilliant end of ‘Baazigar’, in which Shah Rukh, drops Shilpa Shetty down from a building, has shared an anecdote to film.

Recently, there has been a lot of discussion on social media, especially among young fans. In a film festival, Shilpa told some funny stories about the shooting of a never forgetting scene after 32 years. Recalling his early days in Bollywood, he said, ‘At that time I had no information about films and I did not know how to do it. I was like a student on the set. I used to be very nervous at that time. Since I came from South India background, I never talked in Hindi on the set.

Shilpa told, ‘When I set fire, I asked Kadar Bhai to learn Urdu and then I learned from the beginning. I used to feel very nervous about dialogue acting. But all this is fine because I am able to convene. People understand what I want to say. Talking about the climax scene, he revealed, ‘Akbar Bhai was the action director of the film and we shot that scene about five times. My hip was traced for about 8-10 years because I was asked to wear harness. At that time we had no VFX. So I had to officially act to show that I was falling and the building is moving. But the manufacturers thought that the scene could be shot better. I am dead about 15 times.

Shetty praised Khan’s acting saying, ‘But when we saw the last scene, I think this shot was an iconic moment of Hindi cinema. Because you may not have seen an actor pushing an innocent actress down. Shahrukh Khan was fantastic. In the 90s, films were not made with love, not on the basis of money. Directed by Abbas-Mastan, ‘Baazigar’ remains a tiles crime thriller, whose Intens Climax is a major reason that the film is still so liked.
