| Quest for the perfect Loo
Films have used unusual locations for their shoots, but this one takes the prize!
In the forthcoming film “Lage Raho Munnabhai”, director Raju Hirani needed a “men’s loo” for a comic scene with Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi.
Says Raju Hirani with a wide grin on his face “I could have easily built a small set but I thought it maybe more authentic to actually locate a nice men’s loo”.
And so the Munnabhai team was sent scouring through the entire city for the “perfect loo”! Assistants commented on how funny it felt clicking pictures of various loo’s and dealing with the weird glances of people.
Laughs Hirani, “My assistants were looked upon as strange people with a strange fetish when they pulled out their cameras to click men’s urinals, camodes and bathroom tiles”!
Finally, after a long tiring search, a snazzy blue-n-white tiled loo in a popular suburban Mall was The Chosen One!
The shoot itself was the most funny and novel experience.
The film’s cinematographer Murali chuckles “For one shot, I had to squeeze my camera between the wash basin and a camode. I think even my camera was blushing in embarrassment!”
As luck would have it, the snazzy loo had automatic flush sensors for every urinal.
Every time Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi would give a shot and pass by the urinals, the flush would automatically start.
Director Raju Hirani says “At one point, with so many unit members inside the loo, all the flush sensors went berserk and starting flushing simultaneously! We actually had to vacate the loo briefly to stop the urinals from flushing!”
