A pair of shoes worth Rs 2 lakh for Asin


Someone once said, "A pair of shoes can change your life. Just ask Cinderella." And the same holds true for changing a film's budget. Vipul Shah who had an interesting experience while shopping with current flavour actress Asin who stars opposite Salman Khan and Ajay Devgan in Vipul's upcoming film. While shooting for the film, Asin picked up an exquisite pair of shoes worth nearly Rs 2 lakh from a store in Paris. Vipul had to pay for the expensive shoes without a murmur.

Asin it seems complained on the sets in Paris that the shoes given to her to wear were uncomfortable. Our source said, "Vipul had arranged for a nice pair of shoes for Asin for a particular scene which was to be shot with Asin and Ajay Devgan. Unfortunately, Asin was quite uncomfortable in them. Thereafter Asin and Vipul rushed to a store to pick up a new pair of shoes for the actress. They came back to resume the shoot very quickly since Ajay was waiting on the sets."

At the shoe store, Vipul waited patiently while Asin looked around to find that perfect pair. After a few minutes, Asin picked up a pair of black shoes with studs.

When Vipul asked how much the shoes cost, the shopkeeper said, "3000 euros (Rs 2 lakh approx)."
Surprisingly, Vipul did not ask Asin to look for another pair. Even if he was shocked, he did not let that show. Clearly, he did not want to disappoint the lead actress of his film.

Our source added, "Asin didn't ask how much the pair cost and Vipul did not even tell her how much he had to pay."

When contacted, Vipul confirmed, "Yes, I bought a pair of shoes worth Rs 2 lakh for Asin. We had to continue the shooting without any hiccups. I never compromise on the quality of my films." Talk about pampering actors from head to toe.
