Adarsh Gourav recounts stressful moment as Sidharth Malhotra pulls prank on My Name Is Khan set

What: Adarsh Gourav is one of the most interesting actors in Bollywood who has made a name for himself in a very short span of time. He started his career as a child actor in Karan Johar’s My Name Is Khan, starring Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol. In the film, he played a younger version of SRK’s character Rizwan. Since then, he has acted in several acclaimed films and shows.

Furthermore: In an interview with Mashable India, Adarsh opened up about the time when he was doing My Name Is Khan. Sidharth Malhotra and Varun Dhawan were assisting Karan Johar in that film. He said, “I’ll never forget this. There’s a shot in which I’m riding a bicycle, and Sidharth was like, ‘Do you know how to swim?’ I told him I didn’t, and he said, ‘Oh no, actually you have to swim across the stream to the other side, and you have to get out and then continue with the scene.’ I was stressed out for an entire hour, and I was afraid they’d fire me if I told them I didn’t know how to swim. I decided to stay quiet, ‘Jai Mata Di, let’s rock’. And before the scene started, I realized he was just messing around. Well played, full power.”

We say: This is hilarious. Sid Malhotra is quite the prankster.
