Sanjay Leela Bhansali: Why He Chose To Stay Behind Camera At Jaipur Airport?

22nd November 2010

November 22, 2010 (Sampurn Wire):We all know that the directors are the people who give their instructions from behind the camera but it does not mean that it will be applicable in real life too. Then why Sanjay Leela Bhansali preferred to avoid the camera during his last visit to Jaipur on Wednesday?

The answer is here for you. Actually, Bhansali was in a visit to Jaipur but he never thought the journey will end up being a nightmare for him. Bhansali, whose much awaited film Guzaarish, has released this week, had to experience a strange situation at the airport when he was waiting to board the Mumbai flight. The bizarre situation was created by the rains outside.

The filmmaker was quoted saying that the Mumbai-Jaipur flight landed on time even though it was raining heavily. However, the unique situation started following the landing of the flight when the on board passengers denied to come out as they were not allotted any bus and it was raining incessantly. However, the passengers waiting to board the same flight were not informed anything and they kept waiting worrying if the flight was taken hostage, Bhansali added.

After several hours, these passengers came out but the passengers waiting to board the flight now denied to board it because of the delay. Bhansali was witnessing all these drama from one corner and saw that one passenger started recording the event with his video camera. The director then preferred to keep himself hidden at one corner because he did not want to be so popular when the video reaches the news channels. All these drama ended finally when the ground passengers were somehow convinced to board the flight.

Well, we understand now why Bhansali preferred to hide from camera because he would be the main protagonist in the scene if the news channels start airing the video. He preferred to maintain silence on the issue but in spite of that the news still reached us!
