Mansha Bahl Who Will Soon Be Seen In Akshay Kumar And Ashvini Yardi’s Upcoming Production Venture Fugly Recalls Shooting With Dead Bodies


Mansha Bahl, who will soon be seen in Akshay Kumar and Ashvini Yardi’s upcoming production venture Fugly. Mansha plays a doctor in the film. She recently shot in the morgue of a hospital and that too with the real dead bodies present. “At first, when the makers told Mansha that she has to shoot with real dead bodies, she was a little scared. However, later on while shooting the scene, she took just two takes. Mansha will be seen in two different avatars in the film. She will be playing the role of a college girl and then there is a five- year leap in the film, after which she will be seen as a doctor,” a source says. “Yes, I have shot in a morgue for the particular scene where I am having a conversation with my fiancée played by Arfi Lamba over the phone. There was no other cast member present. I was all alone. At first, I was a little scared, but later I was comfortable. I had completed the scene in just two takes as there was a time slot given to us by the hospital and also they allowed only few people to enter in the morgue,” Mansha says. According to Mansha, the way she bagged Fugly was really interesting. “Our film’s director Kabir Sadanand spotted me in Delhi. He said that he wants to cast me in his film but at that time, I didn’t know who he was. He told me to Google about him and after that I said yes to him. The makers needed a happy- go lucky girl and I suited the bill,” Mansha adds. Fugly is a thriller with a strong social message. The film also stars boxing champion Vijender Singh, Mohit Marwah, Kiara Advani and Jimmy Sheirgill.
