After Akshay, New Khatron Ka Khiladi is Prakash Jha!

Filmmaker Prakash Jha doesn't believe in only saying 'action' behind the camera but he is the one who can go to any length to get a faultless shot. This is why even Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan often calls him 'Khatron Ka Khiladi'.
The 68-year-old star is working with Prakash for the first time in 'Aarakshan' and he saw the filmmaker shooting on the edge of a bridge without support and on a crane 50 feet above the ground just to get the perfect shot.
But this daredevil approach did get Prakash into danger twice during shooting.
Firstly, while taking a shot under the bulldozer, the driver didn't hear the 'stop' and almost ran over him and second time he had a mishap on a scooter.
This didn't dampen the spirits of the filmmaker who jokingly told his crew, 'You've made me fall, but don't think I have fallen from grace.'
'Aarakshan' is based on the controversial policies of caste-based reservations in government jobs and educational institutions. Apart from Amitabh, it features Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone, Manoj Bajpayee and Prateik Babbar.
The movie will hit theatres Aug 12.
