Priyanka allrergic to smoke
By TOI, 8 September, 2008

Not many people know that Priyanka Chopra is allergic to smoke and has trouble breathing whenever there's smoke around or near her.

Now, for the shooting of a grungy number Oopcha for Drona, a lot of fire and smoke was supposed to be created on the sets. But, when the film's director Goldie Behl, got to know about this problem of Priyanka's, he together with the entire unit wondered how to handle the situation. And after a lot of deliberation, Goldie thought of shooting all the fire sequences right at the end of the day and keep the shooting hanger open with lots of fans to blow out the smoke for the next morning.

Explains Goldie, "When we conceptualised the song, we didn't realise that Priyanka would have such a problem. So we thought of shooting the fire sequences right at the end of the day and quickly whisk her away. And we did just that. We used fans to blow out the smoke and shoot the other parts of the song next morning. This way, we managed to shoot the sequences without compromising on Priyanka's health, and must say the song's looking sensational." Quite a smoky affair, hai na?
