Farhan Was An Early Bird On DDD Sets

Farhan Akhtar, who has a reputation of being punctual to a fault, used to start his day two hours early every day while he was shooting for 'Dil Dhadakne Do'.
Farhan Akhtar had multiple presence on the sets of DDD as an actor, producer and dialogue writer.
While Ritesh Sidhwani is a hands-on producer and was looking into all details, Farhan used to be available to ensure all ends are met.
He used to start his day two hours before the call time to ensure everything is in check.
They had a hectic shooting schedule and were working against the clock.
While travelling from one port to another, they were running against time and had to ensure the shoot gets completed. The film also has an eclectic cast and so there were various facets to be catered to.

They also had to account for the weather because shooting on the deck during harsh sunlight would not be possible.
Before the shoot started Ritesh was also concerned about the cast and crew getting sea sick and they had to take necessary precautions on that front.
Farhan largely used to be present for a hygiene check and to ensure everything is in place. He made it a routine to start his day before time and iron out the nitty gritties.
A spokesperson for the film confirmed the same and said, "While Ritesh was actively looking into all the production details, Farhan was always available for inputs and guidance. It was a hectic shooting schedule but everything went off smoothly."
For Farhan it was also reminiscent of shooting for 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara' in which they had shot for a road trip in Spain.
'Dil Dhadakne Do' is a film based on a dysfunctional family on a cruise liner and is slated to release in June 2015.
