Mani Ratnam has made Abhishek Bachchan's life hell on the sets of his latest project, Ravana. If you thought making Abhi crop his hair and lose weight were the only things Bachchan Jr was asked to do, read on…
A little birdie tells us Abhishek's character in the film requires tremendous discipline and the filmmaker makes sure Abhi follows a strict regime both on and off the sets.
Abhishek has not only been put on a special diet, but also has to undergo rigorous physical training. The gruelling tasks demand Abhishek to climb rocks, face strong winds in a loin cloth, and run bare-feet in the jungles of Kerala!
The other day, when Mani was shooting a water sequence with Abhishek, he made him rehearse for two-three days. On the actual day of the shoot, he simply didn't allow Abhishek to come out of the water till the last shot was canned. This ordeal went on for almost eight hours.
Maybe with all this, Abhishek and Mani will be able to repeat the Yuva magic. The actor sure needs it.
