Shaitan actor gets his car smashed

While Sonu Nigam's car was rammed by an excited fan, the Shaitan actor Shiv Pandit's car was smashed by a careless cab driver while he was on his way for the film's promotional interviews in Versova.

Not my fault

The newcomer who plays Dushyant Sahu aka Dash in the film recounts, "It wasn't my fault. I was going for Shaitan's interviews and as soon as I took a turn to Anurag's office a taxi came and smashed into my car from the right."



The actor who was driving Hyundai informs that he normally avoids driving during the day but he drove himself yesterday, as his chauffer was busy.

He says, "Initially I was a bit irritated with the taxi driver and called the police but then I calmed down.

I filed the FIR because I need to claim my insurance. The damage will be a couple of grands but I am glad that none of us was hurt."

It's ironical because in the film too the gang meets with a car accident and things change thereafter. It's a very crucial point in the film.

Shiv laughs, "This film has brought me lot of pain." I was shooting a running sequence in the film where I had to jump from the bridge.



While rehearsing that scene I actually fell on the truck and then on ground and was badly hurt. I was hospitalised for two days.

Since I hadn't broken any bone I resumed my shoot on the third day. In another scene, I had to whip myself and my arm was badly bruised," he adds.

But Shiv has no regrets. He says smilingly, "No pain no gain. This film has given me exciting scenes. It's a really cool debut.'
