Adarsh Gourav recalls Sidharth Malhotra’s prank in My Name Is Khan

In an interview with Mashable India, Adarsh opened up about the time when he was doing My Name Is Khan. Sidharth Malhotra and Varun Dhawan were assisting Karan Johar in that film. He said, “I’ll never forget this. There’s a shot in which I’m riding a bicycle, and Sidharth was like, ‘Do you know how to swim?’ I told him I didn’t, and he said, ‘Oh no, actually you have to swim across the stream to the other side, and you have to get out and then continue with the scene.’ I was stressed out for an entire hour, and I was afraid they’d fire me if I told them I didn’t know how to swim. I decided to stay quiet, ‘Jai Mata Di, let’s rock’. And before the scene started, I realized he was just messing around. Well played, full power.”
