Sumeet Sachdev (Gautam Virani from Kyunki) is also doing Balaji's Khwaish (Kabir Khan) on Sony and while enacting a scene in the deserts of Dubai, he collapsed.
Recalling the incident Sumeet says, "It was nothing serious. Actually, I had to run on sand for a certain distance and since I was doing it for the first time, I was not able to determine where the sand was porous. My leg got stuck deep inside the sand, I lost my balance and fell down."
The whole cast and crew of Khwaish was horrified after this incident. But Sumeet prefers to look at the lighter side of it. "It was a nice experience. My head was in sand for 10 minutes."
What about the experience of shooting in Dubai otherwise? "It's a fantastic city and I got some much needed change from the routine Mumbai life," says Sumeet.
Denying that he has quit Kyunki, the actor explains, "Because of Khwaish, I have to stay away from Gautam's character. For the next two months, I will only be concentrating on playing Kabir Khan."
