Back to stunt unit. No need to refer Kill Bill. Low on budget.
Not bad, after all

My son loves that movie. When we lived in Japan we went to the restaurant where they based the fight scene. The one with the two levels.
I thought that was a movie set. WoW, you been to places.
Looks like fun actually 😀
Love this!
Thank you Cindy!
Looks like they’re having some fun!
You are fortunate to be able to travel as you are whilst still young enough to be an active part of the world you’re traveling through. Something more that just a detached observer.
Yup. This is what they love to do and it pays them unlike us writers 🙂
I worked on films for a good eleven years in production department. That’s how I got a chance to travel. Richard, You should plan a trip to India.
Namaste Arjun.
There’s nothing much I’d rather do except perhaps plan one to africa. However, my responsibilities here prevent it.
I am my father’s caregiver. He’s 89 and has a condition called Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. I will be taking care of him as long as he lives. So, for the foreseeable future, my travels will be very limited.
You shall help me travel india vicariously.
You are a good soul. God bless you.I will be your humble guide, I promise.
Thank you.
Love that portrait on top. Good work, Arjun.
Thanks John
Which movie are they filming? I love the charm of Bollywood movies, at least the ones I’ve seen. It’s cool to see behind the scenes.
It’s a promotional video for a TV series. Bollywood movies are charming, just the 60’s musicals in Hollywood packed with romance, drama and songs. Indians don’t take their movies too seriously in terms of original art or story-telling. For us movies are more of an escape from reality, 2 hours of value for money, fun time.
Yep. That’s why I’d rather watch an Indian movie than a French movie. 🙂
😀 I’m a big fan of french movies. The subtle humor, metaphorical references in their movies are much evolved. So are Spanish films.
Honestly I haven’t seen many French movies, but most of the ones I have seen have been rather bleak. Maybe I don’t have a good basis or perhaps I’ve grown up too much on Hollywood movies. It is interesting to see the unique characteristics of the movies of different countries.
Are these the stunt extras?
They do the stunts so technically can’t call them extras, but body doubles
Wonderful photography, as a motorcycle enthusisiast, I found them especially exciting.
WoW, would love to see a picture of you on a motorcycle!
Enjoyed this because I LOVE Bollywood movies and wish I could live in the world they create. I know it is fantasy but it is such a lovely world, beautiful costumes, colors and wonderful dancing and music.
Thank you Ellen. I’m glad you enjoyed the post
Bollywood is huge in Vancouver. Estimates put the Indian population at the largest anywhere in North America.When I was working as a manager at the Hilton a few years ago we put up the cast of a major production. Forgive me for not remembering the names of the stars – long story short; word got out and throngs (and I mean hundreds) of fans staked out the hotel lobby.
You have a keen eye for photography it seems – is there no end to your talent?
Check out these pics from last year Vaisakhi
Amazing pictures. Bollywood is a craze with Indians, in fact with South Asians and Arabs too. What was earlier thought to be regressive, aplenty songs and melodrama, Hollywood in 60’s but Hindi movies has now caught the fancy of quite a few Americans too. Who doesn’t want a escape from reality for a few hours ?
I find it interesting how Bollywood portrays women.
hmmm…like?
Oh man! Why do I open my big mouth? Treading softly into uncharted territory…..
Far from any semblance of an expert; it strikes me that women in these movies are considerably more empowered than many Indian women. These movies are often love stories. I live far from India yet will attest that the “arranged marriage” is alive and well in Canada. As are honour killings, abuse, and violence towards women. Like Hollywood, Bollywood is a fantasy – which explains the popularity.
ha ha..It’s ok, I knew it was coming. Had to nudge you.
No studio desires to make realistic films. Hindi films revolve around family values, drama, humor, romance and so on. Which only makes 5% of our life rest is pain and agony but in a theater you’d like to see stuff which you as an audience would dream of, yearn for. A perfect husband, loving parents and so on. That’s the cliche of commercial cinema. Too much money riding on them to give tough stories a chance. What to do?
Slumdog Millionaire was a beautiful movie.
Yes and imagine that movie was to release only on DVD’s. It was more of an experimental artistic film made on a tight budget.
Sense prevailed and rest is history
I loved it.
To be clear refreshment_66 is my husband, I can’t take credit for the pictures. 🙂
Husband’s name, please.
He’s really touchy about giving out his name. Send it to you by email. FYI – take a look at some of his other pictures. Look at his Cuba shots and some of the night shots. I think you’ll like them. 🙂
Cool. Give him my regards 🙂
Will do. 🙂
awesome photos
🙂
