Abhishek-Vidya ousted from Cambridge Campus

Abhishek-Vidya

Abhishek Bachchan and Vidya Balan, who are back from London after shooting the final schedule of R Balki’s Pa, had a rather humiliating experience while they were there in the Cambridge Campus.

Well, it happened during the shooting of their upcoming film PA. Abhishek and Vidya were asked to leave the Cambridge University grounds just seconds before Balki was about to say ‘Action’. Reason -
they were standing on one of the small lawns in the university premises.This was the violation of the university rule of shooting in the lawns.

Though, it was the director of the film who had chosen the location, but the entire crew including the two stars were told to pack their stuff for violating the norms of the campus.

As a result, the unit lost over two hours of shooting. They did shoot the particular scene but in another college, which was far away from the spot where the fracas had happened. This time, Balki didn’t want to take chances and decided to shoot on a non-grassy area.

The green backdrop was not really necessary. Moreover, they could not afford to lose any more time.

Pa, slated for a year-end release, will have Abhishek playing Amitabh’s father in the film. Amitabh plays a man suffering from Progeria, because of which he ages much faster than others. It must be recalled that PA is already drawing attention since Abhishek will play Big B’s father in the film. A reversal of roles which many eagerly await to watch.
