Actor Ragini Nandwani who plays the lead in the serial Mrs Kaushik Ki Paanch Bahuein, is all set to make her debut in Bollywood with Milind Ukey's Dehradun Diary.
Ragini who usually immerses herself in the character which she portrays, recalls a near death incident which took place while filming a sequence in the film.
It was a suicidal sequence where Ragini had to attempt to drown herself in the swimming pool. Before filming the sequence Ragini was concentrating and practising for the scene so as to get under the skin of the character. Ragini got so engrossed in the sequence, while shooting she actually started giving expressions like she is in great pain and that something is bothering her. Since she wanted to give a perfect shot and get the feel correct, she kept herself in water for a very long time and suddenly lost consciousness and was on the verge of drowning.
Luckily the director Milind Ukey realised that Ragini was not responding to his calls and wasn't getting out from the pool even after okaying the shot.
A source present at the sets revealed that, "Milind had to shout at the unit members to pull her out of the pool as he realised something was wrong." The entire unit ran towards the pool and were shocked on seeing Ragini unconscious in the pool, soon they pulled her out and medical assistance was called in for. The doctor attending to Ragini said that due to water seeping inside her lungs she became unconscious, and prescribed medicines and advised her rest.
The entire unit was shaken by the incident, Ragini too was very shaken and scared and apologized to the entire unit for her lapse in concentration. On hearing this and just to cheer her up a unit member laughed and said 'the suicidal scene wasn't supposed to be this real Ragini', and the entire unit burst out laughing though they were relieved nothing serious happened to Ragini.
