Amitabh - Almost Exposed!
June 06, 2004

Mahalaxmi railway station is a hotspot for Bollywood. In the news for all the wrong reasons recently (most recently for the accident on Kaizad Gustad’s sets), we heard of one hilarious incident for a change. Director Vipul Shah, who is currently directing Amitabh Bachchan in ‘Waqt’, recounted an incident when he was shooting on a platform at Mahalaxmi for his earlier film ‘Aankhen’. Apparently, a huge mob had gathered on every 
platform, all watching Amitabh perform. Now Bachchan had to change for the next shot and he was supposed to go to his van outside the station. But he took one look at the crowd and concluded that he would never be able to make it to his van. So what did he do? He asked the unit members to surround him like a human wall and changed right there on the platform with hundreds of fans all around! Lucky for him there were no sneaky press photographers around! Or who knows …?
