The region of Shekhawati in North Rajasthan famous for its lavish havelis, became host to Salman Khan, Kareena Kapoor and director Kabir Khan who descended on this sleepy historical region on Sunday morning.
Apparently, Shekhawati has none of the amenities that Salman and Kareena are used to.
Says a source from the location, "Salman Khan is used to roughing it out. He can survive even on basic necessities. But for Kareena who lives lavishly in the lap of luxury, Shekhawati is a far cry from her Begum's lifestyle."
Adds the source, "Not that Kareena has not roughed it out during her outdoors. She shot at the Indo-Pak border for her first film Refugee. And she shot in some really rugged terrain for Imtiaz Ali's Jab We Met in places where they didn't have proper hotels. But Shekhawati is a different experience. It is a very ethnic Rajasthani region. Kareena loves the people food and the ambiance already."
Apparently the unit has set up all the comfort requirements for the shooting. Salman Khan who flew straight after the recording of his finale on Bigg Boss is said to be "cool" with the locals.
Says the locational eyewitness, "Salmanbhai is mingling freely with the local people of Shekhawati trying to pick up their dialect, eating their food and looking around at the forts and havelis between shots."
Director Kabir Khan who likes to choose unusual locations says, "We have set up amenities and it's actually quite comfortable here, considering I shot in Afghanistan for Kabul Express."
