Paatal Lok star Abhishek Banerjee, who shot for 15 days of Dostana 2, says the film’s schedule lies uncertain after Kartik Aaryan is dropped from comedy

In these trying times, director Amar Kaushik managed to shoot Bhediya, starring Varun Dhawan and Kriti Sanon, without any hiccups. Abhishek Banerjee, who plays a supporting role in the horror-comedy, wonders whether the team would have been able to pull off this feat in any state other than Arunachal Pradesh. “The state has not seen a drastic surge in COVID-19 cases. It’s one of the safest places [in the country] probably because of the way people have lent their lives to nature and have [encouraged] forestation. If the film was not shot in Arunachal Pradesh, I don’t know how safe we would have felt,” says the Paatal Lok actor, who is in Goa after having wrapped up the film.
