'Fitoor' first film to be shot in Kashmir after floods
Srinagar, Jan 31: "Fitoor", an adaptation of Charles Dickens' "Great Expectations" starring Rekha, Katrina Kaif and Aditya Roy Kapur, is the first Bollywood movie being shot in Kashmir after last year's devastating floods.
"Fitoor" is a love saga directed by Abhisek Kapoor who made "Kai Po Che" that did fairly well.
The romantic film is about a love triangle involving a Kashmiri boy Noor (Aditya Roy), his lady love Firdous (Katrina Kaif) and the Begum (Rekha).
"Fitoor" shooting started in the famous Nishat Garden on the banks of the Dal Lake in summer capital Srinagar as Katrina arrived at the sets wearing a burqa in typical Kashmiri style in the morning.
The movie is running behind schedule, as it was scheduled to hit the floor last year, sources in the film unit said.
