Shoaib Ibrahim scared of water - TOI
Shoaib Ibrahim
Actor Shoaib Ibrahim aka Prem of 'Sasural Simar Ka' may come across as a tough guy, but there's something that makes his knees tremble ' water.
The fear stems from a narrow escape he had a couple of years back. Says Shoaib, "I am scared of water, be it lakes, sea or swimming pools. I was shooting for my first show, Palkon Ki Chaon Mein, and there was a scene where I had to jump into water, find something quickly and come out. I was nervous, because I don't know how to swim and the lake was muddy. I jumped in, but couldn't come out. Finally, people in the unit had to pull me out. That memory still haunts me. I get goosebumps whenever I think of it. Luckily, my current show doesn't have any water sequence."
However, Shoaib is keen to get over his fear. "I go to places around Mumbai where there are streams or lakes and enter shallow areas. I also want to enroll for swimming classes as soon as I get time," he says. That's the spirit, Shoaib.
