The winter is nearing its end but actor Mohit Malik has a chilling tale to tell. Mohit who plays Rajvir Kapoor in Star One’s Pari Hoon Main had a tough time enacting a bold scene.

As per the script, Mohit, wearing scanty clothes, had to come out of a swimming pool and meet his lady love. However, the water was ice cold and a shivering Mohit resisted jumping into the pool. At this juncture, his director stepped in and asked him to have a few pegs of brandy as it would make him feel warm. Though, a bit apprehensive Mohit finally gulped down few pegs.

Talking about this incident, he says, “I had to do a romantic scene wherein I was suppose to come out of the pool of cold water in scanty clothes and walk towards my lady love. The hitch was that I was not able to speak my lines and I was shivering. On top of that we had to do many retakes.”

He adds, “"On seeing my sad state the director asked me to take some brandy. Initially I was reluctant to take liquor especially on the sets but the chilly weather was driving me up the wall so I took the forbidden pleasure and found much needed relief."

Don’t worry Mohit you took just a peg but what about those who down a bottle before giving a shot?
