With top stars like Aamir Khan, Kajol and Suniel Shetty busy shooting in the Poland winter, the scene for Bollywood looks bright in this east European country.

Last year many Bollywood films were shown in Polish cinema halls. Shah Rukh Khan’s movies ‘Main Hoon Na’, ‘Kal Ho Na Ho’ and ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham’ were great hits and he became a big craze for young cinemagoers here.

And now Yash Raj Films, which produced hits like ‘Kabhi Kabhie’, ‘Silsila’, ‘Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge’, has perhaps become the first Bollywood production company to shoot on the slopes of the Tatar mountains.

They have selected a beautiful hill station, Zakopane, 400 km away from here in the south of Poland, to shoot the action scenes for the Kunal Kohli-directed ‘Fanaah’ as the story is related to the background of Kashmir.

Aamir, Suniel and Kajol are shooting for the film and are braving a harsh winter as temperatures are around minus 10 to 14 degrees Celsius in day time and around minus 20 degrees at night.

“One Indian film star was so ignorant of Polish weather that he came in his Mumbai chappals,” said Radio Zakopane on Monday.
