Asin shoots in the challenging Shimla weather for All is Well despite high fever

Actress Asin, who recently shot for the third schedule of All is Well,  fell ill in cold Shimla where they were canning a big part of the shooting. Shimla where the temperatures drop to 3 degrees along with rain was a difficult schedule for the crew. 

Its in fact one of her staff who fell ill first and passed on the infection to Asin as they are constantly with her. Asin immediately called for a doctor for her staff along with getting medicines for herself and inspite of losing her voice completely and running a temperature of 102 F, she turned up on set for shoot every single day. Infact she gave her staff an off for resting till he got better and told the makers that she would manage minus the help. 

Such a gesture is unheard of by any Bollywood Heroine who are generally thought off as tantrum throwing divas. Any other in her place might have  taken a break to recuperate before resuming work. Umesh shukla and the entire crew where very surprised and impressed by her extreme professionalism to ensure minimum trouble to the film and it's producers. 

A unit hand said, “The entire unit was impressed with Asin’s dedication to work, especially because she showed  absolutely no fuss in such extreme climatic conditions and on top of that gave sick leave to her spot boy without even waiting for a replacement and turned up on set without any qualms or tantrums! She did not want to take a break as it would have inconvenienced the entire unit on an outdoor schedule.”

The Rise and Rise of Arjun Kapoor !

Ever since he made his debut in YRF’s ‘Ishaqzaade’, Arjun Kapoor has been lauded as the next best thing in Bollywood. Not only did Arjun wow everyone in ‘Ishaqzaade’, but achieved a hat-trick of success with his next two films ‘Gunday’ and ‘2 States’. 

While Ishaqzaade made on a humble budget went on to collect impressive numbers at the B/O, his next two blockbusters Gunday and 2 States had the cash registers ringing .This makes Arjun Kapoor the youngest actor to be welcomed into the 100 crore club.What makes this achievement even more impressive ,is the fact that 2 States was a solo-hero film and the first-of-its-kind to see such unprecedented success.

A respected trade analyst states, “Arjun Kapoor is undoubtedly the leader of the pack when it comes to his generation of actors and the box office numbers are there to prove - Backed by 3 blockbusters , the rise of "Arjun Kapoor" has been phenomenal for someone who is just 2 years old in the industry. Arjun Kapoor has truly turned out to be a dark-horse at the box office".

Arjun will be next seen in Sanjay Kapoor’s ‘Tevar’,  one of the most anticipated films this year.If sources are to believed ,distributors have been clamoring for Tevar after the phenomenal success of 2 States,which garnered the highest box office amount this far for a new-cast film.

 Directed by renowned ad filmmaker Amit Sharma ,Tevar will also star Sonakshi Sinha , an actress with major box office appeal .All  eyes are on the film as producer Sanjay Kapoor is ecstatic with the developments on the commercial entertainer as it has blockbuster written all over it.

Says a source, "Tevar is one of the most anticipated films this year as it brings together Sonakshi Sinha , a lucky mascot at the box office and Arjun Kapoor who is turning out to be a box office Boy Wonder.The film will mark the directorial debut of Amit Sharma who also directed the Google ad film and is a talent to watch out for".
