Manoj Bajpayee is busy with the shoot of his Vikram Bhatt Production’s film Bijnor these days. Recently, the entire unit was a little shaken after their near miss with a bus that had a drunken driver at its wheels. Manoj says, “During this particular scene, we were shooting on the highway and had the local police with us for crowd management and also to control road traffic. Everybody was cooperating, including the vehicles on the highway.”
Suddenly one bus kept coming towards the crew. Although the policeman tried to stop it and signaled to the driver to slow down or pull off the road for a while, he refused to slow down. Manoj says, “It was at the last minute that we all ran off the road to save ourselves. It was such a filmy scene. Later, when the police caught that guy, he turned out to be drunk.”
