A few days ago, the iconic Doordarshan Mahabharat show was trending on the Internet for alleged nonsense watched by a viewer. In one of the sequences, an air cooler was seen behind Mukesh Khanna’s character, Bhishma Pitamah. However, many said it was a pillar that looked like a desert refrigerator. The debate was endless and now, finally, Mukesh himself made things clear during an interaction with The Times of India.
The veteran actor stated, “Over the past few days, I have heard a photo of me from Mahabharat sets go viral where I was shown sitting in front of a refrigerator. I want to know your photo aayi kahan se and secondly yeh kisne spot kiya? I doubt if this photo is from a still photo from the show. And if so, it’s a big mistake. But from what I can tell after watching it is that it seems to have clicked between takes. I don’t think such a dazzling mistake would have happened from the BR Chopra’s side. He was too careful with creating and editing Mahabharat. “
Mukesh also confirmed that he used to keep a refrigerator since the costumes were heavy. The Shaktiman actor shared: “We were filming in Film City, which was air-conditioned. However, since I had such heavy costumes and, to top it all off, a long beard that I had to wear most of the day, I felt extremely hot ” . Especially for the beard. So, I asked BR Chopra Ji to allow me to use an air cooler. The beard was such that after the shooting I used to sweat a lot and it irritated me. “
