‘Divya Bharti was amazing, used to shoot continuously for 20-24 hours’

Pahlaj Nihalani said, ‘She was an amazing girl, completely dedicated to her work. he/she didn’t care whether he/she worked 20 hours or 24 hours. During ‘Shola Aur Shabnam’ we used to shoot for 20 hours starting in the morning. There would be a scene, then there would be a dance and then we would do another scene. I remember that once in Ooty, when Divya’s foot fell on a nail, she was injured, but she did not tell this to anyone.

Married Govinda had a crush on Divya Bharti, his/her wife Sunita was also afraid but the actor was infatuated after seeing her beauty.
After Divya Bharti’s death, Sridevi shot for ‘Laadla’, hair-raising incident, chanting of Gayatri Mantra.

‘he/she asked for a handkerchief and tied it, his/her leg was bleeding’

Pahlaj Nihalani further said, ‘David Dhawan was not there, but the action director was. I was there near the monitor and when she came back from the shot I didn’t even realize that she was hurt. he/she asked for my handkerchief and tied it on his/her leg. When I asked what happened, she told me it was nothing much, but I saw that there was blood coming out. I immediately called for packup.

‘I was unable to look, she kept shooting’

Pahlaj Nihalani again said, ‘Despite packup, Divya Bharti continued shooting. I couldn’t look at her, but she didn’t react to the fact that she was injured. When we finally packed up, I informed the production that there would be no shooting tomorrow morning.

Divya Bharti sat on Pahlaj Nihalani’s chest

After this Pahlaj Nihalani called Divya Bharti’s mom but the actress refused to go to the hospital. Even refused treatment at home. he/she said, ‘I told his/her mother that there would be no shooting the next day, so that she could rest. But at six in the morning, Divya Bharti took the keys from housekeeping and sat on my chest and said, ‘Come on, get up, why are you still sleeping?’ Because generally we used to start shooting early in the morning. She did not agree to cancel the shooting. I have a lot of memories with him/her.
