 Bollywood films have often taken inspiration from Hollywood when it
comes to action sequences or presenting a romantic sequence. Now, Indian
television is also being influenced by the same thing. Fiction shows
have done that much before and now historical shows have also started
drawing inspiration from Bollywood as well as Hollywood films.
Recently,
Zee TV’s popular historical show ‘Jhansi Ki Rani’ has shown a sequence
where Rani Laxmi Bai starts imagining the dead king everywhere she goes.
The king Gangadhar died after being injured in a fight with Ali
Bahadur. This left the queen in deep misery.
On condition of
anonymity, an actor from the show said that the current track of ‘Jhansi
Ki Rani’ is based on 2007 Hollywood flick P.S I Love You. In fact,
actor Sameer Dharmadhikari, who plays Gangadhar, was called back to shot
this sequence. His character died in the first week of December. Now,
when he is required to shot this sequence, the actor co-operated fully
and gave these few minutes shots. It was very important to have Sameer
for the particular sequence because Rani hallucinates about the king
everywhere. She is in dire need of her husband’s support at this point
of time when enemies are constantly plotting against her and Jhansi.
Well, we hope this helps to the popularity of the show.
