'I Started Shivering': Amruta Subhash Recalls Terrifying Scene With Ranveer Singh
Last Updated: Amruta Subhash opens up about a scary Gully Boy shoot with Ranveer Singh in Dharavi, revealing she was terrified by the wild crowd chasing their vehicle. Amruta Subhash, known for her powerful role in Gully Boy, recently opened up about what she calls 'one of the scariest days" of her life—while shooting a scene with Ranveer Singh in Mumbai's Dharavi. In a candid interview with Bollywood Bubble, the National Award-winning actor described filming a sequence where she and Ranveer were seated in the back of a tempo, driving through the densely populated neighborhood. Though the scene appears simple on screen, the shoot was anything but. 'As soon as our tempo entered the center of Dharavi, people started pouring out of buildings and running behind us," Amruta recalled. 'It wasn't a fast vehicle, and I started shivering. The energy of the crowd was wild—not just excitement, but something chaotic and unpredictable." The scene marked the first time Amruta and Ranveer shot outside of a controlled set environment, and the tension was palpable. With Padmaavat having just released at the time, Ranveer Singh was at the peak of his stardom. Amruta revealed that the crowd was not just reacting to the film shoot but to Ranveer's celebrity presence, which added to the frenzy. 'Ranveer saw I was scared. He held my hand and asked, 'Amruta, are you okay?' He told me not to worry and reminded me that his bouncers were around. He was very comforting." She emphasized that large crowds can carry a 'wild energy"—not always positive and often unpredictable. 'Mob ki energy wild hoti hai… usme ek veheshiyat bhi hoti hai (There's a certain savagery to mob energy)," she said. Directed by Zoya Akhtar, Gully Boy (2019) starred Ranveer Singh as Murad, an aspiring rapper from Dharavi, alongside Alia Bhatt, Kalki Koechlin, Siddhant Chaturvedi, and Vijay Raaz. The film was inspired by real-life Mumbai rappers DIVINE and Naezy, and co-produced by Tiger Baby Films and Excel Entertainment, with American rapper Nas serving as executive producer.
