So guys yesterday we saw Dutta sitting on a ceiling fan. The most important question in all our minds is HOW was Mishal convinced to shoot this scene. So here's what I have from a fly on the wall of the sets of LTL-
CV: Director saab viewers are tired of seeing Dutta sleeping all the time. They want to now see some action from him.
Director: So shall we get Dutta's eyesight back and then take revenge on Chaskar.
CV: Oh no! Viewers also love Dutta's blind avatar. Some viewers want to see him as a Daredevil sort of hero who is blind and yet fights crime.
Director(excited): Thats a good idea! Shall we go that way then?
CV: Oh no! We know LTL is experimental but we dont want to go that far too! We want to give something that will keep all our viewers who want action happy so that they dont stray to shows like Gunhaon Ka Devta. Also we dont want our female khit-pit loving audience happy so that they dont move over to Yahan Main Ghar Ghar Kheli.
Director: So what do you suggest sir?
CV(proudly): Well! I have come up with the perfect plan that will keep everyone happy.
So saying he takes out the script for the day with flourish and gives it to the director. The director starts reading it and chokes on his glass of water.
CV: So? What do you think?
Director: Err...dont you think this type of thing will be impossible even for a man who isnt blind?
CV: So what? We only need him up there and jump and leave the getting up there to the imagination of people.
Director: But sir...do you think Mishal will do this?
CV: You have been hired to convince actors to do what CVs want. So you better get it done.
Director: Yes sir!
So saying the CV goes from there to his favorite set of Uttaran.
Meanwhile Mishal arrives at the set and he gets ready and reaches the location where he has to film. The spot boy comes to him and hands over the script for the day. Mishal starts reading the script and is shocked to see what is expected of him. He goes to the director and asks him about the illogical scene.
MR: Sir...even a person who is not blind can do this. How do you expect the viewers to digest this?
Director: The channel thinks this will work...so we have to shoot it.
MR: Sir you cannot expect me keep my reputation at stake over such a silly idea.
Director: Oh come on! Dont take such things seriously....tommorow viewers will forget what they saw today. And see you will get an opputunity to see if your session in RPJK helped you.
MR: What do you mean?
Director: Well your past life regression therapy. You didnt get a chance to test it.
MR: I think I am fine Sir.
Director: But how will everyone know you are fine? Shoot this scene and the world will know that you are no longer scared of heights. Didnt you think this acrophobia problem may hamper your career?
MR: Err...But how will the fan hold my weight?
Director: We will have wires tied to you so that if by any chance the fan gives away even then you wont fall.
MR(thinking the director has covered all his tracks well): What if people make fun of Dutta?
Director: Just dazzle them with your jump...people will forget everything else.
MR: Err...ok. Where is the makeup man? (Thinking to himself) I hope we have a Kala-Naku scene people would have fallen asleep before this scene airs in the episode.
Director(relieved and thinks to himself): Phew! He agreed and my job is saved! You are great Director ji! This will also please fans of comedy shows like Tarak Mehta Ka Oltah CHasma. ;)
