Plane and simple explanation
Khan reveals details about the plane that features in the ‘Gerua’ video, which is set in Iceland
Shooting the video for the song in the scenic but cold Iceland was no cakewalk for the team.
Giving a sneak peek into the making of the song, Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol explained how they dealt with the cold to capture the stunning beauty of the locale.
For those wondering what a broken plane was doing in the song, Khan said it was already there and they just decided to include it in the movie.
“It was surreal. A half-broken plane in the middle of nowhere. We did not discover it. Rohit did not break it. It was just like that and legend has it that the pilot crash landed there and saved everybody,” Khan said.
The behind-the-scenes video begins with Khan cracking a joke about Shetty, who is famous for flying cars in his movies. “After flying cars, Rohit Shetty will fly dupattas,” said Khan as the camera panned to the director, who is seen struggling with the long dupatta that was used in the scene.
Choreographer Farah Khan is seen complaining about the bitter cold.
Kajol said the rainbows in the scene near the waterfall were real.
“And there are three at one time. I have never seen three rainbows together. It was amazing,” Khan said.
“People go and romance in front of the waterfall and green fields and we decided to do [the opposite] and go behind the waterfall. We were drenched and she saved my life,” said the actor explaining how Kajol got hold of him when he was about to take a tumble near the waterfall.
The actor also said Kajol fooled her kids into believing that she could walk on the water as they shot a scene on the shallow lake.
