MUMBAI: Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi recently went to Jaipur for a schedule of Jolly LLB 3 as a pretty big chunk of film had to be shot over there. However, as the climate in Jaipur was searing hot, as per a source, Akshay Kumar had a demand that once the sun would be out, he would not shoot at all. So because of this, everybody had to follow his demands and had to follow his instructions and they had to report on set as early as around 7-7.30 in the morning.
They could shoot whatever they could only till 9.30 or 10 o'clock till which time the sun would completely come out after which, the entire shoot would be packed up and everybody would go to the hotel and they would just chill for the rest of the day because Akshay Kumar did not want to shoot in such heat and in such bright Sun. This was t the initial plan but only after reaching Jaipur, Akshay Kumar decided to change the entire schedule and the makers were also taken with surprise and they had to comply to his demands given that he is the star attraction of the movie.
Based on the scenes required to shoot, if at all something could be shot in the evening, If the scenes, permitted that, and Akshay and the rest of the cast were available then some scenes work and in the evening at around 5.30-6, the shoot used to resume but it was for very few scenes depending on the timing of the scene in the film, that too, not more than an hour or two would be shot again in the evening because everybody had to pack up early as Akshay then wanted to sleep very early and thus everyone on the set had to get wake up very early so the actors had to reach by 7-7.30. The rest of the technicians and the crew had to start making arrangements as early as 5.30-6.
The source revealed that shooting had to be done in a very fast and quick way because the makers did not have luxury of multiple takes, since they had to shoot only within a certain time frame in the morning, which was not more than two and a half to three hours at the most.
So, whatever they could do, whatever shots they could shoot, they could within those two and a half, and three hours, time frame daily.
And based on this, more takes, even if required, probably could not be done as the schedule was already going beyond the allotted time frame that was previously supposed to happen. So this is basically the demands of Akshay Kumar on the sets of Jolly LLB 3.
