Teen Patti shooting was stopped last week due to the recent terror attacks in Mumbai. The crew was filming in South Mumbai near Capitol Cinema but following the attacks the director Leena Yadav and her crew was not allowed back to resume filming.
“For almost one week the shooting of Teen Patti was stopped to pay the homage to the dead ones. We also felt quite insecure to shoot… But now I hope nothing adverse will happen. We are resuming our shooting in Poona from today (December 6th). But although we are in Pune the security is very tight. No stranger is allowed on the sets,” informs producer Ambika Hinduja.
“The Mumbai schedule which is still pending will be completed when the things get normal. So in the mean time we will finish our other schedules as we don’t want to delay the shooting,” she adds.
The shooting of Teen Patti has been facing numerous delays. It took longer than usual to going on the floors after Arshad Warsi pulled out of the projects. Then when it finally began, Big B feel ill and so once again the filming was on hald after just one day of filming. And when filming resumed on November 14th, the terror attacks forced the filming to come to a standstill once again.
The film is slated to release in mid 2009.
