The shooting of Ghar Ek Sapna came to an abrupt halt recently as the episode director Jaladh Sharma took off for an untimely honeymoon. The joy of tying the knot seems to have overwhelmed him to such an extent that informing his crew about the honeymoon seemed to have slipped out of his list of priorities.

According to a source in the production house, "While shooting for Ghar Ek Sapna, Jaladh suddenly decided to get married. He got married in Ulhasnagar and the whole team was present for the ceremony. But, after the marriage, Jaladh wanted to go for his honeymoon. As he is one of the important episode directors, he was not permitted to go. Jaladh went to Goa without informing us. Naturally, the shoot was stalled for a few days and the producers have suffered a big loss because of Jaladh. The producer Ajai Sinha is very angry with Jaladh's irresponsible behaviour."
Ajai said, "When our episode director Jaladh wanted to get married, we were very happy and gave him a few days' leave for his wedding. In fact, the whole unit attended his wedding. Then he wanted to go for his honeymoon. We could not let him go because we had to shoot to create an episode bank. But Jaladh did not come for a few days. We have three directors, and everyone has to complete their share of scenes; otherwise the show lacks continuity and the right treatment. We could not shoot Jaladh's share of scenes and the dates of the actors were wasted. We have suffered loss worth a few lakhs of rupees because of this."
Is Ajai angry with Jaladh? "I was angry initially and warned him that the losses would be cut from his payment. He was a little taken aback. But I also forgave him, as everyone wants to cherish their honeymoon memories for a lifetime. I don't want to turn his rosy memories into a nightmare. He might have forgotten about his work while having fun with his wife," Ajai replied.
The lead actress of Ghar…, Sayantani Ghosh aka Kakul said, "We all had a great fun at Jaladh's marriage. The shooting was definitely cancelled for a few days; but I don't know what the reason was. We don't interfere with production details."
