When Ayesha Takia was made a bakra


The cast of Rohit Shetty’s movie Sunday pulled an unexpected prank on actress Ayesha Takia recently.

The film, a comedy, has Ayesha playing a central character who becomes the prime suspect in a number of murder cases. In keeping with the film’s lighthearted theme, her co-stars from the film decided to play a prank on her recently.

Ayesha was given an invitation for the special screening of the film at Pixion Studios in Bandra. She decided to attend the event with her mother Farida.

But when the actress and her mom turned up at the event, the security guys did not let them through. They told Ayesha that she and her mom were not on the list of invitees.

On top of it all, the security guys looked at the daughter-mother duo with suspicion and insisted on checking their handbags.

Ayesha just could not believe all this was happening to her. She immediately called director Rohit Shetty , but to no use. Frustrated, she was about to walk away from the venue when Arshad Warsi showed up with a 100 watt smile on his face.

Cameras of MTV suddenly appeared from their hiding places and Arshad revealed to Ayesha that she had been made a bakra.

Ayesha took the prank in right spirit and joined the others in laughing at herself.

The Ayesha’s bakra episode will now be shown on MTV. For, she is the channel’s bakra of the month.
