Producer-director Anees Bazmee's 'Mubarakan' is reportedly the first Hindi film to be shot in the beautiful neighbourhood of Weybridge in England. Bazmee said he chose the typical British neighbourhood for his family entertainer. “This beautifully looking neighbourhood was so co-operative with us throughout the shoot. Our producers ensured that they followed all the rules, informed them everything about the shoot, and never did anything that would trouble them,” Bazmee said.
He added, “We not only shot during the day but also in the night. Such detailed discussions like using light in the night shoot also happened with them so that it doesn't disturb them. On a few days, when we wanted to shoot a Christmas scene, they would switch on their decorative lights in the lawn as a friendly gesture.”
'Mubarakan' features Arjun Kapoor in a double role, along with Anil Kapoor, Ileana D'Cruz, and Athiya Shetty. Speaking about his shoot, Bazmee said, “We are the first Hindi film to have shot in such locations and I can assure you that next time, when a Bollywood film goes there, they would be welcomed with open arms.”
