The chairperson of Mahindra and Mahindra, Anand Mahindra, Anupam Thareja and Boman Rustomji Irani. recently graced the stage for the launch of new 2025 Yezdi Roadster motorcycle at the Mukesh Mills. At the event, Anand Mahindra said. 'What I love about this is… I think most of you know that this was very intricately linked to Om Shanti Om. This is where Shah Rukh chose to film it. And there was very good reason, maybe even he was inspired by the history of this plot which suffered a fire and was destroyed, and that was a part of the plot. So, the plot of Om Shanti Om in fact involved fire and reincarnation,' he said. He also recalled that the superstar even used the Yezdi in his 1994 hit film Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa. 'And frankly, that's exactly what we are here to do. I am sure Shah Rukh is going to be happy because he used the Yezdi in one of his earliest films Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa. He really likes this brand,' Anand added.

'No VFX was used around that time, so we had to light the fire on that set. It had Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, three camerapersons, and around 60 members of my unit inside the set. So, there were a total of 100 people inside the set that was on fire,' he shared in Punjabi. He added, 'I was immensely stressed out during that shoot, I don't know how to explain it because one had to be careful. One had to make sure to put off the fire within seconds of lighting it. If someone commits a mistake anywhere, it could end on a disastrous note. I swear by God, there were so many times I'd go to the side and start crying on set. I felt I'd have a heart attack.' Om Shanti Om was directed by Farah Khan and hit the big screens in 2007. The movie also marked the acting debut of Deepika Padukone.
