Actor Emraan Hashmi has acted in several films based on the paranormal and the supernatural. In real life, however, he’s known to be rather skeptical about these subjects. Recently, he was quite shocked to know that witches exist and not only in rural areas, but also in metropolitan cities.

According to sources from the production house, it was while shooting for his film Ek Thi Daayan that the topic came about. “People on the sets were discussing the existence of witches when Emraan revealed that he didn’t believe that they exist. Emraan said that it was mostly all hearsay and found it hard to believe director Kannan Iyer who told him that there were people who practice and believe in witchcraft even in educated cultures,” says the source. 

The source adds that Emraan was not ready to believe this till Kannan introduced him to crew members who had researched the subject. “The crew members told Emraan that there are people who practice witchcraft and that the magic could be white (healing) magic or dark,” adds the source.

In fact, the crew members took Kannan and Emraan around the city to meet a few of them. “He was also taken to homes that displayed signs and symbols that are used in the study of the occult, mainly to do with the cult of Wicca, on their doors and windows. Only then did he believe that these cults exist,” adds another unit member.  “But what shocked him the most was that some of these houses were in posh residential areas, which reflected the existence of Wiccans in modern society. Of course, we all learnt that while there were daayans, there were also witches who practice witchcraft for the good of others. There were many misconceptions that were dispelled, even though there’s still much unknown about them,” adds the source.
