The cast and crew of Ekta Kapoor's The Dirty Picture is back in Mumbai, but it seems they haven't finished all the portions to be filmed at Ramoji Rao Film City in Hyderabad.
One important scene that involves a passionate kiss between Vidya Balan and Tusshar Kapoor remains. It will now be shot in Mumbai later this month.
A crew member explains that the scene was to be shot on Saturday after the Telangana strike enforced a holiday on July 22. "On Monday evening, there was a dragon fly attack on the sets.
"They weren't the regular dragonflies, so we had to be cautious and turn off all the lights for a couple of hours," says the source, adding that it wasn't until early morning that the hordes of dragonflies dispersed.
Further, the source informs they couldn't shoot it in the morning, as the kiss scene was to be shot in the night.
"But we did shoot the complete buildup to the liplock, with Tusshar stopping his bike near Vidya's car and walking towards her, lying on the bonnet with people watching."
Director Milan Luthria confirmed the incident, terming the insect attack 'horrifying'. "There were millions of those flies. They would get into our mouths and clothes," he recalls.
Fortunately, the flies left before dawn. "So we could shoot some scenes before packing up the schedule. We couldn't shoot the kiss scene then and have scheduled it for another day," adds Milan.
