Aditya Roy Kapur-Mohit Suri’s five-star fiasco

It was in the wee hours of morning and the otherwise bustling lobby of a five-star hotel in Goa was cosily tucked under a blanket of silence. However, the peace was short lived. Loud chatters and robust sounds of celebrations made way from the poolside-- an area out of bounds to the guests at night. Fearing that the noise might inconvenience the other patrons, the hotel staff rushed to the spot only to find two men, dressed in their formals, swimming at the pool and keeping them company were hordes of empty beer bottles.

As the merrymaking subsided and they were pulled out of the water, the staff barely managed to identify them as Aditya Roy Kapur and Mohit Suri. Two other crew-members were also with the duo in the pool. The Bollywood 'boys' were in town to shoot some portions of their upcoming film, Aashiqui 2 and had put up in the hotel. This is how it unravelled. After a hectic day at the shoot the duo had planned a party at their hotel room, where other crew members also joined in.

However, even as night rolled towards dawn, and the rest of the 'spirited' gang got slumped out, Mohit and Aditya were in no mood to call it a day. And around dawn, as if possessed by the beer gods, ran towards the pool and jumped in. The water-boys made quite a splash thereafter. However, the staff at Vivanta by Taj was not half amused by this Bollywood Bacchanalia and the team was politely asked to vacate the hotel at that very moment.

By then both Mohit and Aditya had realised their mistake and refrained from getting into any kind of altercation and it was a prompt pack up. While, Aditya didn't reply to our texts, Mohit said, "It was a boys' night out. We were in a mood for some celebration. We did have to leave the hotel, but we had planned to vacate it a few hours later anyway." A senior official from Vivanta confirmed the story but refused to elaborate further. Meanwhile... Rahul Roy, who shot to fame with Aashiqui, is hardly ecstatic about the sequel.

The actor, who played Rahul in the original 20 years back, still lives, eats and breathes the film and says: "Aashiqui is in my filmy DNA. It was a stupendous hit and it is still Anu and l people envision when they think of Aashiqui." Although he lauds Mohit Suri for taking up the challenge of recreating the successful film, according to him, the magic of the original is almost impossible to duplicate. "Mohit is a sensible director and I wish the team all the luck," the actor adds.
