Randeep Rai of Yeh Un Dino Ki Baat Hai continues to shoot despite injury

Yeh Un Dino Ki Baat Hai, one of the most popular and loved shows on Sony Entertainment Television is a show that takes its viewers down memory lane and relive their 90’s romance. Love of the 90’s was simple, pure and innocent which the lead couple Naina & Sameer portray with all its honesty on-screen.

Their characters on the show have wooed the audiences and they have become the best on-screen Jodi of their fans. Viewers are rejoicing as Naina & Sameer are finally engaged and the preparations for their marriage have begun on the show. Each actor on the sets, is giving their best to ensure they are able to recreate the 90’s set-up and have been shooting non-stop to ensure their fans get their daily dose of entertainment.

Randeep Rai who is playing the role of Sameer has become a heart-throb not just because of his looks but also because of his brilliant acting skills. Recently, Randeep got his foot injured while shooting one of the scenes. In the shot, Randeep had to break the glass and he got so much into the character, that he accidentally stepped on one of the broken glass pieces and cut his ankle. He was bleeding profusely and everyone on the sets got worried at the sight. Everyone wanted him to get his first-aid done, but Randeep being a thorough professional, finished shooting the scene first despite being in immense pain. As soon as the shot got done, the team rushed him to get first-aid and thereafter Randeep continued to shoot the track for that day.

He mentioned, “I was so engrossed in the scene that I didn’t even realize that I had hurt myself and my ankle was bleeding. I was advised to pack-up given my situation and to go home and rest but then I’m aware of the fact that there are hundreds of people on the sets who work hard everyday to make us look good on-screen and be loved by the audiences and therefore I decided that I will continue with the day’s schedule as usual and not let their hard-work go waste. I love acting and once the camera started rolling, I had forgotten all my pain and I kept pushing myself to give each shot my best shot and that was when I realized that how much this role has become a part of me.”

The dedication and passion Randeep has for his role and character is commendable and the same reflects on-screen as well.
