Anas Rashid's tryst with a snake!

The entire team of Shashi Sumeet Mittal's popular show Diya Aur Baati Hum had a gala time shooting in Latur for the finale of their much touted Hijack track.

Shooting outdoor has always been challenging for the actors as well as for the crew and we came to know that the team of Diya Aur Baati Hum too faced a lot of challenge while shooting in Latur.

The lead Anas Rashid experienced a tryst with a snake that was spotted in the balcony of his hotel.

Anas shares, "The moment I returned to my hotel room from my shoot, I saw a snake in my balcony. The window of my room was slightly kept open and it was around 5 PM in the evening. I closed my window and informed the production people and asked everyone to close the windows of their rooms. I always love such wild things so I just sat and looking at it. I didn't did not want to harm the snake. By then, the production people had informed the hotel people and they came and took the snake with them."

"We had a great fun shooting in Latur. We used to see many discarded snake skin lying around and we used to get scared though never missed a chance to play pranks on each other. Sometimes we used to play pranks on others screaming about the snake and make them vacate their rooms (laughs). We used to scream saying - 'Snake' and all others used to get scared and run. We also enjoyed a lot celebrating Prema's (Vindhya Tiwary) birthday. We didn't even realize how three days passed so soon," adds Anas.
