Delhi:
Music maestro A.R. Rahman and director Imtiaz Ali were treated to
some delectable Kashmiri cuisine during a recent visit to the
Valley while they were working on their upcoming film "Rockstar".
Parts of the movie, produced by Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision,
have been shot in Kashmir, and so the duo visited the Valley for
some special sound work.
One of the line producers from Kashmir is a distant relative of
Imtiaz and he invited the director, along with Rahman, to his
place for a treat, says a source from the unit of the film.
There they were treated to authentic Kashmiri delicacies like Vaazwan, cooked by the lady of the house.
What followed was a routine where almost every day, Vaazwan was
brought to the sets for the unit to relish.
On the last day of their schedule, the team called for a huge
feast with a variety of Kashmiri delicacies and everyone present
on the sets including actors Ranbir Kapoor and Nargis Fakhri
enjoyed it.
"Rockstar" is set to release Nov 11. The film is about a young
super-successful musician who doesn't believe in love, but
deliberately falls in love on the advice of a musician to enrich
his musical sense and become emotionally richer.
