Bipasha Basu is loving every minute of her shoot with Priyadarshan in Karaikudi near Madurai in Tamil Nadu, but she is petrified of the mosquitoes that have been troubling her.
While the producers have made loads of arrangements to try and keep the pests away, the occasional mosquito still bays for the unit’s blood.
A funny conversation was heard between the sexy Bengali bombshell and one of the production assistants.
Said Bips to the assistant, “Make sure that mosquitoes don’t come anywhere near me. I don’t want to get bitten. I’m mortally scared of getting malaria.”
Apparently, the assistant replied: “Madam, don’t worry... first of all I have made sure that mosquitoes don’t come near you.
And, God forbid, even one or two come they will not bite you.” Bips apparently rolled with laughter when she heard this. She has heard of men talking to their pets. But she has never heard of a man talking to pests (mosquitoes in this case.)
