They say time is time and it is equal for all and in this big bad world of movies, none is forgiven if he/she reports late, especially on the sets of filmmaker Vipul Shah, still unsure? Then ask Ash.
Ace actor Aishwarya Rai had to bear the brunt of Vipul’s staunch commitment towards his work when she repeatedly reported late to the sets of ‘Action Replay’, co-starring Akshay Kumar. According to reports, Shah was forced to impart Ash a lesson on the importance of punctuality.
Insiders suggest that Aishwarya would always come late to the sets. On days when she came on time, she would spend most of her time doing up her hair, make-up and clothes while everybody kept waiting for her. The entire schedule of the shoot would get disrupted and Vipul, who is extremely particular about shooting the scenes aesthetically, was fed up of waiting hours for Ash and hence he made his dismay very clear quite recently.
According to a source, “That day, Aishwarya came to the sets, changed into her costume, did her make-up and hair and was ready to shoot. After the entire process, which took her several hours, Vipul shot precisely for a minute before declaring pack-up. Aishwarya was aghast that Vipul had made her get ready only to shoot for a minute. She openly expressed her displeasure, to which Vipul shot back, ‘Apne sets pe sab time par aate hain aur sab time par jaate hain.’ This was a clear indication of how irritated Vipul was.”
Well, all we can say to Ash is- a stitch in time saves nine!
