It’s no secret, Raveena Tandon loves wildlife and she likes to spend her holidays exploring the lush green forests, going for wildlife safaris and nature treks. The actress’ love for wildlife surged during the shoot of her upcoming film 'One Friday Night', directed by Manish Gupta, when she rescued a snake, a crab and a scorpion during the shoot.
One Friday Night was shot atop an isolated hill in a remote forested region surrounded by the beautiful Pawna Lake in Maharashtra. During the shoot, she rescued a snake that had entered the forest bungalow that was rented for her stay during the shoot.

Director Manish Gupta revealed, "Some other person may have been horrified by the presence of a snake in her place of stay, but Raveena kept her calm, she called up the forest department and used her connections to get the reptile rescued."
He also narrated another incident while shooting for an outdoor scene and maintained that Raveena had to walk through puddles of water wearing only sandals on her feet. Someone spotted a huge crab lurking about on the wet ground, and the crew members came to Raveena's rescue wanting to crush the large crab.
However, the director shared that Raveena gracefully asked her bodyguard to just scoop up the eight-legged arthropod.
"But, Raveena gracefully asked her bodyguard to just scoop up the clawy creature in the large umbrella that he was holding above her head, and the bodyguard released the crab in a grassy marsh some distance away," the director was quoted as saying by Free Press Journal.
In another incident, a large black scorpion was spotted under director Manish Gupta’s chair right next to his feet. However, seeing that the director was wearing heavy trekking shoes, Raveena knew that he was safe.

She did not alert the director as Raveena postulated his alarming reaction upon spotting the poisonous creature. However, she did not want the director or the scorpion to panic and hurt each other. The Mohra actress waited for Manish to get up from his seat and she quietly asked a crew member to drive the scorpion away.
Manish Gupta's 'One Friday Night', which also stars Milind Soman and Vidhi Chitalia, is touted to be a relationship drama plotted like a Hitchcock-esque suspense film.
