Silver screen turns ‘Blue’

MUMBAI - Shot extensively under water and featuring Australian pop star Kylie Minogue, the film ‘Blue’, was premiered here last evening.

Directed by Anthony D’Souza, the film unfolds drama, excitement and promises to thrill audiences with never-seen-before dare-devil stunts by actors deep in the sea in the company of sharks.

The film, according to actor Zayed Khan, will hook the youth to their seats.Blue was my most challenging film among all the action films I have done so far. I have done shots for three films in one film,” said Zayed Khan.

The shooting of the film, made under the banner of Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision Ltd, was a thrilling experience according to Zayed Khan.

“My personal journey has been very enriching. It’s been a trip that I guess being an actor you don’t really get into situations of swimming with sharks, and going down, and putting yourself in dangerous situations or doing stunts on trains or jumping off buildings,” added Khan.

Zayed Khan stars in the film along with Sanjay Dutt, Akshay Kumar, Katrina Kaif, Lara Dutta and Kylie Minogue among others.

The actors risked their lives in getting the real shots of themselves carrying out dangerous stunts under the water.

The film is perhaps the first one in Bollywood that has been extensively shot under water.

Produced by Dhillin Mehta, ‘Blue’ has been mainly shot in Bahamas and has outsourced Bollywood technician and experts.

“For the first time, we are making a movie which is based on underwater, which is shot in Bahamas 250 feet down the water,” said Dhillin Mehta.

The movie is set to be released on October 16. (ANI)
