Over the years, we have witnessed Rajasthan as Bollywood’s favourite shooting destination. Be it the pristine palaces of udaipur or the stimulating sand dunes of Jaisalmer, the beauty and essence of the state has been showcased on big screen very often. But what is it about Mandawa, a small town in Jhunjhunu district of Rajasthan, which attracts numerous Bollywood stars and makes it a preferred choice for their films? Manvi Dewan sheds light...
A 260 KM ride from New delhi is not that exciting a journey but as soon as you reach this quaint little town, you land in awe of its culture and hospitality. It is Mandawa’s rural appeal, magnificent heritage, forts embellished with colourful wall paintings and most importantly low production costs that attract filmmakers.
On strolling through the sprawling lawns of Castle Mandawa (a popular heritage hotel), one gets flashes of the peppy dance number ‘Cutie pie’ from the recent film “Ae dil Hai Mushkil”, where actors Fawad Khan and Ranbir Kapoor danced with Anushka Sharma.
