Brilliant actor Jaideep Ahlawat is currently awaiting the release of his upcoming web show 'Bloody Brothers' and he is going to share screen with Zeeshan Ayyub in this dark comedy thriller. Recently, during a promotional chat for the show, Jaideep recalled a time when he and superstar Kamal Haasan almost got arrested by police in USA.
When asked to share an incident when he genuinely feared for his life, Jaideep told Hindustan Times, This happened when I was shooting for Vishwaroopam with Kamal Haasan sir in Manhattan, New York. This was around Christmas in 2013 and the entire US was on high alert for the festival. We were shooting with three big SUVs on a bridge and Kamal sir was sitting with me in one of the cars. We couldn't finish the scene in one go so had to go around and return.
He further added, Now, we had to cross a toll booth every time we wanted to return to the bridge. The third time we reached the toll, eight or ten cop cars surrounded us. Situation aisi ki bhai goli mat maar dena (just please don't shoot us). We sat with our hands up and explained we were shooting. Somehow, we got out of that mess. They let us off with a warning. Later on, it became a hilarious memory.
Jaideep concluded by stating, Your mind is a weird thing. I was thinking if we get arrested, I would be a hit. I hadn't done anything grand till then but suddenly Jaideep Ahlawat would be the man who got arrested with Kamal Haasan in the US.
