Nassau, The Bahamas - An Indian film company plans to do some filming in The Bahamas starting in June 2008. Filming will take place primarily underwater but there will be some shots above water as a ship wreck and treasure are part of the storyline.
A local casting company is seeking the following extras:
- Attractive "eye candy" types of all races, colours and nationalities
- Fit and toned
- Youthful, aged 18-35 years
Pay is $150 per day. Most extras will be needed for just one day, a few will be needed for more than one day.
Shoot days are June 7, 13, 14, 23 through 26 and 28.
Taran Adarsh from the Bollywood Hungama News Network reports that 2008 should mark the revival of the action genre. Aamir Khan, Akshay Kumar and Salman Khan will be performing daredevil and death-defying stunts in their forthcoming films. Shree Ashtavinayak Cinevision, makers of BHAGAM BHAG, MAINE PYAAR KYUN KIYA, GOLMAAL and JAB WE MET, are ready to make one of the most expensive films ever made in India. The genre is action.
Titled "BLUE", the top production house has assembled an impressive line up of stars, which includes Sanjay Dutt, Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Lara Dutta and Zayed Khan. Tony, a new director, has been entrusted the directorial reins of this project.
"Major action portions of the film will be shot underwater in Bahamas. In fact, the cast will be undergoing extensive training in underwater stunts before we begin filming," Suniel Shetty tells me. Reportedly, the film is budgeted at more than Rs. 100M crores ($2.37 M).
