While Ranbir and Shazahn romanced for the camera, real-life couples were asked to leave the place.
An eyewitness said, "Shimit wanted Ranbir and Shazahn to walk holding hands together. He wanted to capture the two in a romantic mood for the scene.u00a0 The director had also chosen a perfect timing for the shotu00a0- late eveningu00a0- when the sun's just about to disappear into the sea."
Please leave!
Shimit did not want any lay person around when he was canning the shot with Ranbir and Shazahn. Says a bystander, "It is a well known fact that the far end of Marine Driveu00a0- where the rocks areu00a0- is frequented by couples. In fact it is known as lovers' point. And there were quite a few of them on that day too. The girls were cosily snuggled close to their guys. However, they were soon told to vacate the place."
"The couples at first that it was some kind of moral policing going around. It was only later that they learnt they were being asked to leave because of a film shoot. All the couples then vacated the place immediately.u00a0 Some of the girls recognised Ranbir and went crazy, but he handled all the attention very calmly and smiled and waved at them." said the witness.u00a0
The shooting then progressed smoothly. "Though the shoot had caused a bit of traffic jam and a huge crowd had gathered to watch it, Shimit wrapped up the shoot in one hour flat. The couples went back to enjoying their romantic evening sitting on the rocks."
Shimit Amin remained unavailable for comment.u00a0
