a friend attacked
This thing is from the year 1977. Bollywood's famous director Shyam Benegal was shooting for the film 'Bhumika'. Smita Patil and Amol Palekar were playing lead roles in this film. Om Puri and Naseeruddin Shah were also in this film with him. One day after the shooting, both of them went to a Dhaba to have food. Suddenly Om Puri saw that Jaspal, a friend of Naseeruddin Shah, was moving fast toward him. Before Om Puri could understand anything, Jaspal attacked Naseeruddin Shah with a sharp weapon. Before Jaspal's second attack, Om Puri grabbed his hand without delay and did not leave until he released the knife from his hand.
Om Puri saved his life
Naseeruddin Shah was bathed in blood after the attack on himself. After this Om Puri somehow brought them out of the dhaba and informed the police. The police arrested Jaspal after some time and thus Om Puri risked his life to save the life of his friend Naseeruddin Shah. Naseeruddin Shah wrote in his book that he considered Jaspal his best friend, but he was jealous of his success. Because of this, he attacked them. Recalling that incident, Naseeruddin wrote, 'That day Om Puri took me to the hospital in a police car, that too without delay. He was my true friend. He could have done anything to save my life.
