Actor Paresh Rawal suffered from an acute attack of vertigo

Veteran actor Paresh Rawal suffered from an acute attack of vertigo during the shooting of his forthcoming film.

The actor, sources present at the sets confirmed, could have been grievously injured when he had the vertigo attack. It was co-star Ajay Devgn who caught Paresh by his hand and prevented the actor from falling down at least two floors (roughly 30 feet).

“The shooting was being held on a giant revolving set. None of the crew members were aware that Paresh had a previous history of vertigo. Reality struck when one of the crew   members found Paresh tottering as the set started revolving during the shot.
Then we suddenly found Ajay holding on to him and preventing him from falling down.”

Unit sources say that the song required “a constant movement” by the actors on a revolving set which resembled the interiors of a house.

Says our source from the sets, “Pareshbhai suffers from vertigo and the moment he saw the set, he was so petrified that he  immediately went up to director Ashwni Dhir and told him that he was very  uncomfortable with the whole scene and that he wouldn’t be able to do the shoot.”

Apparently Paresh is petrified of large moving objects and has never even sat on a giant wheel in his life. However, he later agreed to do the scene after much cajoling by co-star Ajay. But after completing one shot, Paresh started feeling dizzy and just   couldn’t do the scene anymore.

When asked about this incident, Paresh said, “The whole experience of getting into the revolving set was horrifying for me. I felt really sick. Ajay has being performing action sequences his whole life so it was relatively easy for him. I heard Konkona too tried the same and hats off to her for completing it.”
