Team 'Tamasha' gets a lesson in Folk Music and Dance in Shimla!

Filmmaker Imtiaz Ali's fondness for folk sounds is visible in almost all his films. Shooting for 'Tamasha' was no different, whereby the crew got a real taste of local flavors of Himachal Pradesh while working on the film. 

While shooting for the final schedule of the film in Shimla, the crew got to listen to the rare and beautiful folksy tunes from Himachal Pradesh. Staying in the historic Sidhowal Lodge in the hill town, one evening the local artists from Shimla turned up impromptu and sang Himachali folk songs.

For the crew, this was a super pleasant surprise! The friendly folk musicians even showed off some dance moves impromptu and helped the crew learn a few Himachali dance moves.

Imtiaz Ali often incorporates folk culture and music in his films. With 'Tamasha', the filmmaker is expected to highlight common Indian theatre and public performance styles on a grander, innovative scale. And we sure can't wait to see these! 

Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and directed by Imtiaz Ali, Tamasha is presented by UTV Motion Pictures and Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment.
