Epic shoot for 'Mahabharat' at Amber Palace

Epic shoot for 'Mahabharat' at Amber Palace
Shooting of Mahabharat
TOI caught the team of the upcoming show 'Mahabharat' shooting at the Amber Palace on Friday. After shooting in the scenic locales of Jaisalmer, the crew is here for another week-long schedule. A huge set has been built for the show and actors, dressed up as characters from the epic, were spotted filming scenes in the soaring temperatures.

The film's sets at Jaleb Chowk and Baradari in the palace have become an added attraction for visiting tourists, who stop by during their tour of the palace to catch a glimpse of popular TV actors like Shaheer Sheikh, Pooja Sharma, Nissar Khan and Shafaq Naaz shooting for the show.

Talking about the architectural marvels of Rajasthan, which completely fit into the story, the show's producer Siddharth Kumar Tewary said, "Rajasthan forts and palaces have their own unique charm. And since we are shooting for an ancient epic, one had no better choice than Rajasthan. These architectural marvels give a perfect feel of the bygone era that we are trying to recreate." To make their portrayal more authentic, the show's actors have also attended special acting and diction classes.
