Curiosità

Andaaz (transl. Style) is a 2003 Indian Hindi-language romantic drama film directed by Raj Kanwar, written by Robin Bhatt, Shyam Goel and Jainendra Jain, and produced by Suneel Darshan. The film stars Akshay Kumar, Lara Dutta, and Priyanka Chopra. Shot extensively in the West Indies, Andaaz's promotion centered around the acting debuts of two beauty queens together for the first time, which Darshan considered was the film's main selling point.

Production

When director Raj Kanwar approached Suneel Darshan with the idea for Andaaz, Darshan liked the concept and agreed to produce the film under his production company Shree Krishna International despite the poor performance of Kanwar's previous three films. Robin Bhatt, Shyam Goel and Jainendra Jain had written the film's screenplay.

Darshan cast his frequent actor Akshay Kumar in the lead role and due to budget constraints, Darshan wished to cast two new actresses opposite Kumar. He and Kanwar ultimately decided upon Miss Universe 2000 Lara Dutta and Miss World 2000 Priyanka Chopra as the most suitable actresses for the roles.

Kumar had wanted to become an air force pilot in real life, so he was excited to play one in the film saying that it helped him to fulfill a personal fantasy. Concerning his preparations for the role of Raj, he added: "I have done everything according to what the role requires.

The art direction and cinematography were led by Jeena Matthew and Ishwar R Bidri, respectively. Principal photography lasted three months, with extensive shooting in Cape Town, South Africa. The South African government provided MiGs and other jets for filming, and the crew were allowed to use footage from a South African air show in the film.
