He agrees it was a challenging shoot.
"It definitely made the sequence more challenging, but also more exciting."
Neil revealed that they did not just stick to work and even went out exploring the picturesque locale.
He added: "Beyond the shoot, we made the most of our time exploring nearby spots, visiting the beautiful waterfalls in Sissu, travelling to Rohtang Pass, and enjoying local street food. It felt less like work and more like a vacation with the entire Parshuram family."

Manali is beautiful but dangerous in winter. This kind of shoot requires serious training. Neil is a diligent actor but I think the production should have hired stunt doubles for those scenes. Safety first!
At least they're treating it like a vacation! That's the spirit. What's the point of shooting in a beautiful place if you can't enjoy it? 🏔️❄️
Nobody cares about Neil Bhatt's minor fall. The important thing is - why is Star Plus airing another serial about property disputes? We want some fresh concepts! Mr. & Mrs. Parshuram sounds like a remake of some old film.
I love how TV actors romanticize their work. I've been to Manali in December - it's -5°C with ice everywhere. Running on those rocks must have been hell! He deserves credit for doing his own stunts. 👏
The article should talk about his amazing career journey! From 12/24 Karol Bagh to Bigg Boss, he's grown so much. I'll definitely watch this new show because of him. Hope the story is good too. 📺✨
