Prince Narula refuses to play lord Shiva on TV show

Actor Prince Narula, who is seen as Lucky in TV show "Badho Bahu", refused to play lord Shiva for an upcoming scene as he had consumed chicken.

Prince was asked to play lord Shiva for one scene where his wife Badho (Rytasha Rathore) imagines Lucky as lord Shiva.

However, Prince, who follows a diet plan which involves eating a lot of protein and chicken, had already consumed some chicken for breakfast the same day when he was asked to play lord Shiva.

"The screenplay had just come in and I was told about the scene and to play lord Shiva at a very short notice. I can't play the role of any God the day I have had non-veg," Prince said in a statement.

"The day I am required to play such a role I will make sure I do not consume non-veg. Well it was my personal call and I am glad that my producer and the channel understood my sentiments and allowed me to skip the same," he added.
