Well the lady surely seems to be having a bad time as far as her safety is concerned. Just when Pallavi Gupta who recently met with a very serious accident that caused a major fracture in her leg, had resumed shooting for her show Hum Ladkiyan albeit on the wheel chair, she had another cirisis to face!!

Apparently, the team had to shoot for a fire sequence that involved her. In spite of having a body double, Pallavi was required to do the sequence herself and in the process almost caught herself on fire too!

The lady who didn't realize the intensity of the sequence started crying when she was shooting for it as she was surrounded by fire. Engulfed by fear, she could not wait till the shot was taken, and things got worse for her when she realized that she being restricted by a wheelchair would not be able to run in case of any emergency.

"It was the scariest shot I had ever given. I was crying and saying I wanted to go home. After my accident I had it in my sub-conscious mind that had any accident occurred I would have been unable to run and even save my life. In fact my dupatta had even caught fire and someone told me, had I been any closer, my hair would have caught fire too".

To add to her grievance, she recalled her astrologer predicting that it wasn't an auspicious time for her and she needed to be careful. "Yes, that just scared me even more. I felt that was it, some misfortune was bound to happen then. It was so difficult and I was praying all along. I was so glad when ultimately we got the shot. I think I didn't have to do any acting there, it was naturally dramatic enough", says Pallavi.

Well, we advice a word of caution, young lady!
