'Shilpa Shirodkar shot DEAD, had 25…': Actor REVEALS Raghuveer shoot that created panic at….
Shilpa Shirodkar was - years ago - rumoured to have been killed while she was busy shooting for Raghuveer. The 1995 film had featured Suniel Shetty as the titular hero. The makers had also roped in Shilpa Shirodkar, Suresh Oberoi, Sudha Chandran, Mohnish Bahl, Aruna Irani, Gulshan Grover, and Prem Chopra. While the film was being shot, a rumour started doing the rounds that suggested that Shilpa was shot dead. This left everybody at her house in a state of shock and panic. However, the actress was informed later by the makers that it was nothing but a promotional activity for Raghuveer.
In a recent chat with Pinkvilla, Shilpa recalled the misunderstanding that left everyone shocked. She said that she was in Kullu Manali when her dad was trying to call the hotel because they did not had mobile phones at that time. She said that she was shooting with Suniel Shetty and everyone who was watching the shoot there kept thinking if this is Shilpa or someone else because they knew the news. She further added saying that when she came back to the room, there were around 20-25 missed calls and her parents got worried for her as there was a headline in a newspaper that Shilpa Shirodkar was shot dead.
Later, the film's producer told her that it was a promotional strategy. She said, "When he told me, I was like 'Okay'. Yes, thoda zyada hogaya. There was no PR activity or anything at that time. Kuch pata hi nahi tha na". She said that she was the last one to know that something like this was going to happen as no one used to take permission at that time. She said that the film worked well and she was not angry.
Meanwhile, Shilpa will next be seen in Jatadhara, which is a highly anticipated pan India supernatural thriller that will mark her return to the silver screen. Jatadhara is a supernatural mystery thriller that focuses on Anantha Padmanabha Swamy Temple and its hidden secrets. Sudheer Babu headlines the film and is reportedly is undergoing intense physical training for the role. Sonakshi Sinha debuts in a Telugu-Hindi bilingual project and will share the screen with Shilpa. She was last seen in Bigg Boss 18.
