Evelyn Sharma

Some Bollywood stars are known to go out of the way to accommodate their producers, sometimes braving risks and weather. We often hear such episodes of professionalism about Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, etc. Joining the list now is the Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani actress Evelyn Sharma. Recently, on her way to shoot for Divya Khosla Kumar’s Yaariyan in Darjeeling and Sikkim, Evelyn’s flight was rerouted from Bagdogra to Guwahati airport because of a bad storm, leaving her stranded alone with her luggage. Shooting was scheduled for the next day thus she decided to bravely take an overnight train from Guwahati to Siliguri to reach her sets on time. Evelyn says, “Luckily, God sent an angel in the form of one of the nicest persons I have ever met; to guide and guard me the whole journey - from going to the railway station, arranging for a ticket on a completely booked train, guarding me for 10 hours on the journey, inviting me for lunch in Siliguri and safely dropping me to the car which brought me to the shoot in Sikkim.”
