"Ek aisa din tha that I will never be able to forget in life. The car that was used (for a scene) was from the time the scam had happened.

What happened next? He shared, "I and Mukesh Tiwari were seated in the car. Upon reaching the mark, I tried to apply the break but the car didn't stop aur break lag hi nahi raha tha. The cameraman was standing with the camera and the entire unit was in front of us. The car kept on moving and seedh camera mein jaake ghus gayi gaadi. Speed zyada nahi thi toh sab log bach gaye. No one was hurt."
