For
all those who can't wait for Shivaay to come to theaters, here's a very special
sneak peak of the megastar shooting at a height of a staggering 2914 meters
above sea level!! Situated in the Balkan Range of Mountains, Devgn chose the
Vihren peak due to its impressive and powerfully dominating presence with its
breathtaking high wall.
We
hear, Devgn and his team were shooting at the highest peak of Bulgaria's Pirin
Mountain's at VIHREN peak in Bansko. Interestingly in 2014 the Winter Olympics
were housed in the resort below the Vihren peak that Ajay Devgn decided to
shoot on.
There
was heavy snowfall the night before and the temperatures unusually were running
record low at the time for the season. Due to the extreme cold, Devgn suddenly
got hypothermia. The Doctor advised at least 2 days of rest but Ajay Devgn was
back in 30mins inspite of the temperature that they were shooting in. It was
-19 degrees Celsius.
The
Doctor attributed Devgn's sudden Hypothermia to very tough terrain and lack of
adequate warm clothing. While the unit was exhausted but prepped for the cold,
bundled in layers of woolens; Devgn was in costume and was only clad in a T
shirt and a jacket. Also the level of altitude mixed with the chopper hovering
over his head blew a lot of snow and ice around the area where Devgn was
isolated for these critical shots.
The
mountain specialists and guide on the shoot was also very worried as this is
not a usual shoot that he has guided before.The Bulgarian crew, though used to
extreme cold conditions were also very worried at the 40mins non-stop chopper
shoot that Ajay Devgn pulled off on top of the Vihren Peak while all the crew
waited on a safe point below.
Meanwhile
in between all this the crew was very tense, and were trying to make frantic
calls as they had to source a doctor on top of the mountain which was a trek
and two ski lifts away.
Most
units would have called the day off but Devgn is a fighter. He jumped back into
action in 30mins and did not let the day go waste. His spirits were high and he
got the job done well.
