Some TV actors have a problem doing scenes that involve slight on-screen intimacy. There have been instances where actors have requested their directors to change scenes
However, have you heard of a storekeeper threatening to sue a channel and a production house? Well, that is exactly what happened on Zee TV's 12/24 Karol Bagh.
A unit member from the show said in the press: "The scene had the majhli daughter of the family, Neetu, and her boyfriend going out shopping in a mall and ending up in a retail store for the night. Now, according to the story, the young couple ends up making love in the store. It was with much difficulty that the team got permission to shoot the sequence, as nobody was willing to grant them permission."
Further, the source told that, "The production house sought permission from the mall and the storeowner and they were initially cool with it. However, when the storeowner found out that they were going to shoot a lovemaking sequence in the store, he just refused to let us shoot. But when the production team insisted that they needed to shoot the sequence, as it was critical to the script, the storeowner threatened to file a suit against the production house."
"When the production house argued that it had the necessary permissions and had no back-up location, he argued, 'Woh sab mujhe nahi pata, jab mere bachchon ko pata chalega ki humari dukaan mein aisa shooting hua hai toh main unko kya jawab dunga? Aap bas yahaan se nikaliye!" he just shouted.
In the end, however, he had to give in as senior unit members convinced him though after much discussion and the shoot was completed finally under the watchful eyes of the storeowner!
