Shreyas Talpade had a whale of a time while teaching Hindi to a Thai actress on the sets of Nagesh Kukunoor’s film Bombay To Bangkok .
A great part of the film is set in Thailand and has been shot in Bangkok, Khaoyai and Kho Chang islands. During the shooting, Thai actress Leena Khristinsen, who is also the film’s heroine, asked Shreyas to teach her some Hindi.
Shreyas lapped this opportunity to pull a prank on Leena. He taught her many cuss words and told her that they were good and polite words in Hindi.
For instance, one day when Leena wanted to know when the shooting would be wrapped up for the day, she asked Shreyas how to ask the unit members in Hindi. Shreyas told her to ask the unit : Kamino, kutto, ghar kab jayenge? (You scoundrels and dogs, when will we go home). When Leena did ask the unitmembers what she was taught by Shreyas, she got very surprising reactions.
On another occasion, when Leena was very tired, Shreyas told her to go to the film’s crew and tell them: Hey ulloo ke pattho, main bilkool thaki nahi hoon, aur do ghante shoot kar sakti hoon.”
However, it did not take Leena long to figure out that Shreyas was teaching her cuss words. She took his prank in sporty spirit.
