Anurag Basu is said to be a big prankster, and the latest prank he pulled on Shilpa Shetty Kundra had her in a fix.
Says a source from the sets of Super Dancer 2, the duo is judging,
“During the break when Anurag got the opportunity to take away Shilpa’s phone, he texted her sister Shamita Shetty from her phone that she is pregnant. Shilpa started getting a number of calls from her sister and congratulatory texts on the news! It took some time for her to convince Shamita that she is not in the family way again and then realised that Anurag was the culprit. She, however, laughed it off, as she is used to her Metro director’s pranks. Once he had removed the batteries from Shilpa’s mic without her knowledge and during the shoot, her voice couldn’t be heard. The shoot had to be stalled to get it fixed again!”
