Dog bites Ankit Bathla

Ankit Bathla aka Ayush of Hamari Saas Leela had a real un‘canny’ moment yesterday. The actor was attacked viciously by a dog during the shoot. Here’s what we came to know. The actor was to shoot a scene wherein he had to tame a dog that was let loose on the principal of the college by Anokhi (Swati Kapoor). However, while the scene was being shot the dog attacked and bit Ankit on his right hand. The dog managed to tear through the overcoat and a T-shirt that Ankit was wearing. The canine menace also scratched his right leg. The actor, who maintained a calm head during the incident, was rushed to a nearby hospital for vaccination. An eye witness recounts, “The dog got furious all of a sudden and attacked Ankit but he did not react much or hit the dog. He kept his cool and tried to control the situation. Owner of the dog finally came in and took the dog away.” We talked to Ankit who said to us, “Yes, I was bitten by a dog yesterday on the sets and I had to take injections. But no hard feelings as I love animals.” On a lighter note the actor added, “Well, more than the dog bite it’s the pain of injections that’s killing me.” Well, we can’t help but feel sorry for the actor. Whoever thought that it’s only fun to be an actor…
