Karisma Kapoor Rescues Co-star from Drowning During Prem Qaidi Shoot

Karisma Kapoor’s act of heroism behind the scenes of Prem Qaidi proves that in the reel world or the real world, her star power shines as brightly as her compassionate heart, making her a true heroine both on and off screen

Karisma Kapoor Rescues Co-star from Drowning During Prem Qaidi Shoot

In a heartwarming revelation, actor Harish Kumar, known for his role opposite Karisma Kapoor in the 1991 film Prem Qaidi, disclosed a remarkable incident from the shoot. Speaking exclusively to Instagrant Bollywood, Harish recounted the day when his life was saved by none other than his co-star, Karisma Kapoor.

 

Prem Qaidi, which marked Karisma Kapoor’s debut in Bollywood, holds a special place in the hearts of many cinema enthusiasts. However, it was behind the scenes where an extraordinary act of heroism took place.

 

During the filming of a pivotal scene involving a swimming pool, Harish found himself in a perilous situation. Recalling the incident, he revealed, “Karisma usme (pool) koodti hai toh main usme jump karke usko bachata hoon. Lekin haqeeqat main aaj aapko bata raha hoon ki Karisma ko bachane ke liye main kooda, lekin reality mein Karisma ne mujhe bachaya kyunki mujhe swimming nahi aati thi” (“She jumps into the pool and I save her in the scene. But in reality, she is the one who saved me because I did not know swimming”).

 

The revelation sheds light on the camaraderie and genuine concern that existed between the two actors on set. Despite the demands of the scene, Karisma Kapoor’s quick thinking and selflessness averted a potential tragedy.

 

Karisma Kapoor, hailing from the illustrious Kapoor family, has carved a niche for herself in the film industry with her versatile performances. Her debut film, Prem Qaidi, not only showcased her acting prowess but also exemplified her compassionate nature behind the scenes.

 

Harish Kumar’s revelation serves as a testament to the bond shared by the cast and crew of Prem Qaidi, highlighting the importance of trust and teamwork in the world of cinema.

 

As the industry continues to celebrate the timeless classics of Bollywood, this heartening anecdote adds another dimension to the legacy of Prem Qaidi and the enduring spirit of collaboration in Indian cinema.
