Daisy Irani gulps down 5 beers for scene

In order to get into the 'skin of the character', actors can go as much as any length. Well, the 60 year old veteran actress Daisy Irani (aunt of Farah Khan) will now be seen within the film Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi (SFKTNP), that's being directed by Bela Sehgal. This film stars the unlikely lead pair of Boman Irani and Farah Khan.

There was a scene within the film that required Daisy to get drunk. Daisy, who generally doesn't drink, landed up guzzling down 5 full bottles of beer! Talking about this 'beer-dare' incident, Daisy said that, on that day, she was very exhausted and was expecting the shot to wrap up quickly, which failed to happen. Because the film schedule got stretched for the entire day, Daisy came up with the original solution of actually getting drunk, which not just got her 'into' the character, but in addition acted as a source of de-stress for the actress!

Hats off to this true 'spirit' of acting of Daisy Irani.
