Wissenswertes

Marigold is a 2007 romantic musical comedy directed by Willard Carroll. The film is about Marigold Lexton, an American actress who begins a personal transformation and becomes enamored with India as she experiences Bollywood firsthand. It stars Salman Khan and Ali Larter as the title character.

Production

While in India, Carroll had seen a Bollywood film (with Salman Khan), and, after seeing 150 such films, he hired Larter (whom he had worked with before) and Khan to be in a "crossover" film (although Carroll says he dislikes the term and prefers the idea of an "international audience"). Larter said that her role in the film, to some degree, mirrored her life at the time.

Composer Graeme Revell augmented the songs with a Western (and in one case an Indian) sound and ended up striking an overall balance between the two. Carroll decided that some of the songs should be in Hindi.

CGI effects were used to create most of the white Taj Mahal (there were some set pieces built) and all of the mirroring black structure.
