SS433 is well-known for its precessing twin jets having optical bulletsinferred through {\it spectroscopic} observation of $H_\alpha$ lines. Recently,Chakrabarti et al. (2002) described processes which may be operating inaccretion disk of SS433 to produce these bullets. In a recent multi-wavelengthcampaign, we find sharp rise in intensity in time-scales of few minutes inX-rays, IR and radio waves through {\it photometric} studies. We interpret themto be possible evidence of ejection of bullet-like features from accretiondisks.Comment: 9 latex pages with five figure
