Parth Shah, who, along with Prateek Sharma, is producing shows like Pukaar: Dil Se Dil Tak, Pyar Ka Pehla Adhyaya: Shiv Shakti, Pyaar Ka Pehla Naam Radha Mohan, and Rabb Se Hai Dua, under their banner, Studio LSD, says though the monsoon season creates a problem for the shoot, the shoot must continue.
He said, “The monsoon season in Mumbai brings its own set of challenges for outdoor shoots. Every year, the rains create chaos and disruption, but the show must go on.”
“For our team, shooting for Pukaar in Naigaon has been particularly affected due to the ongoing road construction, leading to water logging issues. The set is often inaccessible, causing delays and making it difficult for the team to reach on time,” he added.
But for him, the safety of his cast and crew is very important. “Our electricians and lighting crew are equipped with proper boots and gloves to ensure they can work efficiently without risking their well-being. The entire unit and team are also provided with raincoats to keep them dry and comfortable,” he said.
“While the monsoon does pose some challenges, we have found ways to adapt and overcome them. By shooting extra days, we can compensate for any lost time and ensure that our shows remain on schedule. Fortunately, our other three shows are being filmed on Mira Road, which has fewer issues with water logging, making it easier to manage the shoots,” he added.
Parth further shared that, despite the challenges, their team remains committed to delivering high-quality content, no matter the weather conditions. “We understand that the show must go on, and our audiences are eagerly waiting to see what’s next. So, we gear up, rain or shine, and get the job done.”
