Rishikesh getaway for Shivin Narang

The team of

Beyhadh 2

wrapped up their shoot in Rishikesh recently. While they had a ball shooting in 10 degrees Celsius, Shivin Narang risked his life for a sequence. The actor, who has thalassophobia (fear of deep waters), shot in the

Ganges

for seven hours. "Rishikesh was really fun. I needed a break and nothing could have been better than visiting the mountains. There was a sequence where I had to jump in the Ganges and that was shot at the exact place where people go rafting. The water was very cold and the location was also risky as the whole stretch was full of huge rocks and I was in the water for seven hours. After a point my fingers and toes went numb," Shivin tells us.

For Shivin, jumping in the ice cold water was the most difficult part. "I had done rafting before in Manali, but there I was doing it with experts, and rafting for a scene is totally different. It was just me and Jennifer Winget on the boat and that was risky. The toughest part for me was to jump in the water. It was so cold and people around me were wearing two-three jackets and I just had a shirt on!" he shares.

Being a Delhiite, Shivin has visited

Haridwar

multiple times, but he says he never got a chance to explore Rishikesh. "I have been to Haridwar many times, but I have only been to Rishikesh once and that was many years ago. I finally got an opportunity to explore the city while I was shooting. We covered Ganga aarti, visited

Ram Jhoola

, Laxman Jhoola and we also shot at some locations outside Rishikesh. Reaching those places was very difficult as there are no proper roads, so this trip was one adventure for me," he says.
