Himansh Kohli laments how the pandemic has affected all his shoots. Just as actor Himansh Kohli decided to shift his focus to films last year and start the shoot of his next, the pandemic hit. Talking about the delay of his film, Boondi Raita, the actor says, “There are times when you are working and there are times when you don’t work at all. There are times when you get great opportunities in life and then the pandemic ruins it.
For me, that opportunity was getting back into films because they have always been my priority. I started shooting for a film last year, when it got pushed and now again this year.” Kohli says that the delay with the shoot schedule has forced him to push the stop button on further work commitments. “I am suffering. My film got delayed twice in the last one year. So I can’t even take up new work. I have committed my dates to finish this shoot first. As a result, I have to leave other projects that are coming my way,” he explains.
The actor, who is currently in Delhi with his family, shares that he was very keen to start the shoot this year at least. “But at a time like this, you cannot even ask for that to happen. It is not possible to shoot a film right now. It has to be a 45-day-long schedule with a minimum of 200 people. It is an unachievable task. No producer wants to put anyone’s life at risk on the set,” Kohli points out.
