Talking about it, he said: “It is absolutely true that I fear fire. But when it comes to acting, I do try my best to do full justice. So, I agreed to leave my fears behind and went ahead. “When my tail caught fire, at first I panicked... My heart beat was racing fast and eventually I started feeling dizzy. But the production team was very generous... They immediately got me out of the mess and provided me with the best facilities to get over the incident and re-shoot the entire scene.”
