If the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) had given permission, the climax scenes of film “Blue Mountains”, scheduled for release on Friday, would have been shot at the Taj Mahal, the producer has said.
The film’s producer Rajesh Jain told IANS: “I had seen the Yanni show back in 1997 behind the Taj Mahal and I was so fascinated with the ambience that I somehow wanted to film some scenes of ‘Blue Mountains’ at the Taj Mahal. But that was not to be. But I am sure my next film definitely will be shot in and around the Taj Mahal.”
Jain, a handicrafts exporter, is entering the Hindi film industry with his maiden venture, which features Gracy Singh, Ranveer Shorey and Rajpal Yadav. A musical, the film revolves around a small town from where a youngster suddenly grabs the limelight through a reality show on TV but some traumatic situations change his whole life.
Jain was in Agra to look for locations for his next venture with associate director Piyush Pandey.
Pandey said there is a timely message in the film for the youngsters — more important than victory, it is the participation in a competition that should matter.
The film has music by Aadesh Shrivastava and Monty Sharma and songs have been sung by Shreya Ghoshal, Kailash Kher and Shaan.
