Maniesh Paul was
all set to appear on the web series Stupid Man Smart Phone, but alas it was not
to be.
Ironically, true
to the show’s name, the popular TV host thought he is doing something smart-
but it ended up being a stupid move.
Maniesh had flown
to Udaipur in Rajasthan for the show but before he could start shooting, he was
replaced.
Sahil Khattar with Sumeet Vyas On Stupid Man Smart Phone
The crew was all
set to leave Udaipur for Jaisalmer, where Maniesh and the show’s host, Sumeet
Vyas, were to shoot in the Thar desert. But when Maniesh was told that
they will travel by road, he put his foot down.
The actor said
that he wants a chopper to fly to the desert. This demand shocked the makers of
the show, which airs on the digital platform Voot.
So, instead of
tolerating his starry tantrums, the producers of the show simply decided to
replace Maniesh Paul.
Internet star and
comedian Sahil Khattar stepped into the shoes of Maniesh for the episode later.
The web series is
the Indian adaptation of the British show Stupid Man Smart Phone.
The reality show
sees Sumeet and a celebrity guest dropped into a different, treacherous
environment every episode. They must survive with no training or knowledge of
the local language or customs, only their smart phones and internet access.
Earlier, Evelyn
Sharma had created a fuss while shooting the show in Tamil Nadu because she did not want to walk in the rains in her expensive
shoes.
These actors and
their starry tantrums we tell you!
