We’re re-living the torrential rains of 26 July 2005 for the past month.” And the on-camera deluge has been created in no ordinary studio. Says Emraan, “Since no studio could give us a floor large enough to submerge cars in rain water we’ve hired this disused scrap-metal factory in Mulund which has been filled up with water. It started with ankle-deep water. Now it’s knee-deep. Now the water has gone up to the waist and stomach. Soha is much shorter so we just see her head popping out of the water. ” Wading through stagnant water for almost a month has taken its toll on Emraan and Soha’s skin. “There’re two recycling plants installed. But they haven’t helped much. And on top of that we’ve cars underwater which we bump into regularly. The director Kunal Deshmukh should be happy he’s got two co-operative actors. We don’t demand mineral water instead of rain water to sink into.” A broken finger was the birthday gift he got when he turned 30 on Tuesday. “I and Soha Ali Khan have been literally shooting 16-18 hours a day. I couldn’t even attend the birthday calls. When I went back home I saw more bouquets than I had ever seen in my life. Quite a change from how it used to be when I had debacles.” In his words, Emraan’s birthday was chaotic. “The shooting went way beyond what we expected. So by the time I reached home we couldn’t really go out. My wife and I just had a quiet dinner. No gift from his wife because Emraan doesn’t believe in giving or getting gifts. “My wife was with me and she made dinner for me. That was gift enough.”
