Bhandarkar hits on Preeta Jain

It was a sort of scoop which shook the entire production house and channel alike. And before we explain the entire episode, look at the headline once again. It's Preeta Jain and not Preeti Jain. The man too is not Madhur Bhandarkar, we are talking about Nitin Bhandarkar here.

This incident took place on the sets of Zee's laugh riot Johny Ala Re, which is famous for its spoofs on famous personalities. But for once, the latest spoof wasn't based on a famous personality. It so happened that the director, while casting his actors for a small skit involving a director who forces himself on a newcomer, didn't realise that the male actors name was Nitin Bhandarkar and girl was called Preeta Jain.

He realised this co-incidence only when he held the mike and started giving instructions on the micro-phone saying, "Arre Bhandarkar, Ms Jain ko aise nahin, waise pakad." And what followed was a hilarious situation wherein everyone present on the sets started laughing.
