5 trucks of marigold for Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's Mirziya

Mumbai, Mar 20 (IBNS): After getting high security for shooting the most important sequences in Mirzia, Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra has now made way for the Kolkata marigold flower in Jaipur.

The sequence was debutant Saiyami Kher’s wedding sequence in the film, which is one of the most integral sequences of the film.

Considering it is a grand Rajasthan wedding, Rakeysh needed the set to look perfect. He looked into each and every detail, from the costume on each and every person on the set to the floral decoration which had been used.

So much so that the director called for 5 trucks of yellow marigold flowers all the way from Kolkata.

Kolkata is known for top quality marigold flowers.

The sequence was shot in 7 days so the makers had called for the flowers on regular intervals after the initial 5 trucks.

It is Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s first love story. He is leaving no stone unturned for this project and is personally looking into all the detailing.‎

Mirziya is a contemporary love story set in Rajasthan. It is one of the most anticipated films and the biggest launch vehicle for Harshvardhan Kapoor and Saiyami Kher.

Spokesperson confirms the news and adds, "It is a very important sequence and was shot over many days. Keeping it traditional, simple and classy was the idea - which sounds easy, but is tough to achieve. The production team did a wonderful job of achieving that."
