In this tiring Covid-19 pandemic, we’ve been satisfying our wanderlust and carpe diem FEELS by rewatching favourite Bollywood road-trip movies.
And of course, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (YOLO literally) pops up immediately if we’re talking about iconic travel movies…
Today, we have a killer FUN FACT…when Hrithik Roshan ALMOST killed his co-stars while shooting for the famous ‘mantally challenged bwoy’ scene!
WATCH VIDEO:
In the BTS video posted by Zoya Akhtar’s production banner, Tiger Baby Films, Abhay Deol can be heard saying – “Before shooting this scene, Hrithik almost killed me and Farhan. And how he did that was – he was behind the driver’s seat, and he drove the car to this corner to park on the side for the background of the shot. But he forgot to switch the car off!”
In the video, the car can be seen sliding down towards the gorge, and Farhan Akhtar jumping out in a panic!
Abhay continued – “The car started to go forward down the hill, and Farhan was really fast, he jumped out immediately and I sat there thinking I’m going to die now.”

Also, the Mr Dubey character that they’re poking fun at in this scene was based on a real-life professor from Farhan and Zoya’s Maneckji school!
