Music In The Mountains: Yeh Ishq Haaye

Babita and Randhir Kapoor appeared in yesterday's post. Today their daughter Kareena Kapoor dances to a peppy song from "Jab We Met" (2007). The opening sequence of this song was shot in Rohtang Pass, and soon the scene shifts to Naggar Castle; both close to Manali in Himachal Pradesh. Naggar Castle is a wood and stone structure built more than 500 years ago. It overlooks a valley offering breathtaking views from its courtyard. The courtyard was transformed into a Tibetan carnival site with huge props, local performers and lion dancers for shooting this song. And as we can see, all this has given a nice local flavour to the song and the dance.

The film was a super hit giving a huge boost to the careers of leading couple Kareena Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor, and winning many awards in several categories.

Singer: Shreya Ghoshal
Lyrics: Irshad Kamil
Music: Pritam Chakraborty

  1. Rohtang pass aur Narrang Castle dekhna hai zaroor (in to do list). Jab We Met was a very good movie - story, screenplay, direction, acting etc.
