Zeenat Aman recalls being pregnant during Daku Hasina shoot: “To hide my belly, the crew came up with various creative shots”
Zeenat Aman Recalls Working in Daku Hasina
Zeenat shared several photos from the film, including a still where she portrays the titular Daku Hasina wielding a rifle. In the caption, she summarizes the movie’s plot: Daku Hasina follows Roopa, who seeks revenge on the powerful village overlords who murdered her parents. Guided by the infamous dacoit Mangal Singh (played by Rajinikanth in a special cameo), Roopa transforms into the ruthless Daku Hasina and embarks on a path of vengeance. The story thickens with the arrival of police inspector Ranjit Saxena (played by Rakesh Roshan), leading viewers to question the connection between the lawman and the lady dacoit.
When Daku Hasina’s Crew Came Up With Creative Solutions for a Growing Bump
Zeenat then reveals a fascinating fact: she became pregnant during the early stages of filming. “This was one of the last films I did before my extended hiatus,” she writes. “I became pregnant early on in the shoot, and by the end of filming, I was well into my third trimester! My svelte figure had naturally ballooned, so to hide my belly the crew came up with various creative shots.”
Zeenat acknowledges some concerns with filming horseback riding scenes, considering a previous incident where a horse bolted due to on-set elements. However, she assures fans that all scenes were filmed safely with the well-being of her unborn child as a top priority.
A Film Reflecting Social Change
Zeenat concludes the post by mentioning how Daku Hasina resonated with the growing awareness and activism around feminist issues at the time. She also shared two additional posters featuring Rajinikanth. Fans can look forward to seeing Zeenat Aman next in Bun Tikki, a film co-starring Shabana Azmi and Abhay Deol, directed by Faraz Arif Ansari.
