Kunal Deshmukh left stranded in Nepal

Jannat director Kunal Deskhmukh was in Nepal to attend a friend’s wedding at Gorkhana Forest Resort, which is only a few kilometres away from Kathmandu. After an earthquake shook Nepal, Deshmukh messaged close friend Emraan Hashmi to confirm that he was safe. Messages were exchanged between the two from time to time until complete power failure.

"The hotel was evacuated following fears of after-shocks and everyone spent Saturday night out on the 18-hole golf course", Emraan told Mumbai Mirror. On Sunday, the director reached the airport to catch a Jet Airways flight to India, but learned that it was not allowed to land amid fresh tremors. After informing Emraan about the same, the director shared that he would have to tough it out on the tarmac or leave and comeback tomorrow.

"It's crazy but at least my friends are together. I think rations are running low at the airport. Since all commercial flights have been cancelled, the Indian Air Force flight is the best bet", Emraan added. But around 8:40 p.m. Bhatt received a text from Kunal, "One Jet flight just landed. Our flight is expected to get here at 10 pm. Fingers crossed". The ace filmmaker told Mumbai Mirror, "This is life imitating cinema. Kunal's Tum Mile was about lovers trapped in a natural calamity (floods in Mumbai). Now he and Sonali, sweethearts since school, are trapped in a similar situation".
