\nZeenat Aman reveals how the team, led by actor Dev Anand, shot the chartbuster Dum Maro Dum track.<\/p>\n
The hall of fame of method dancing, if there ever was a list, will feature a \u201cstoned\u201d Zeenat Aman. The veteran actor has revealed she smoked real chillums while filming the song \u201cDum Maro Dum\u201d from the film Hare Rama Hare Krishna, in which she played the role of a drug addict.<\/p>\n
The 1971 musical drama was directed by actor Dev Anand and launched Zeenat Aman to stardom. In a recent Instagram post, the veteran revealed how the team shot the song in Kathmandu, when Dev Anand rounded up a \u201cgaggle of hippies from the streets\u201d to be featured in the RB Burman chartbuster, penned by Anand Bakshi.<\/p>\n
Zeenat Aman on why she failed to have meaningful relationships: \u2018Men\u2019s intent was obvious but shallow\u2019
\nZeena Aman recalled that the hippy extras were delighted because they were not only getting to \u201cpack their chillums with hashish\u201d but were also getting free food, going to feature in a Bollywood movie and were \u201cbeing paid to boot.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNow Dev Saab wanted authenticity in this sequence. My character, the drug addled Janice, had to really look stoned. And the easiest way to achieve this was to partake in the hippy offerings! So there I was, still in my teens, gamely taking long pulls from their chillum for take after take.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy the time we wrapped the day\u2019s work I was high as a kite! I was in no state to return to the hotel in that happy, dizzy and slightly gormless haze. So some of the team members packed me into a car and took me on a drive to a beautiful vantage point. There in the cold mountain air, I contemplated the Himalayas and slowly, peacefully came down from my high.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
