Ash’s ‘Taj Mahal’ being re-scripted
 
India’s first IMAX movie is languishing with 40% of its portions yet to be shot

When director Bharatbala’s Aishwarya Rai-starrer ‘Taj Mahal - The Heart of 
India’, promoted as
the first IMAX movie in this country, was launched three years ago, it seemed a 
very
enthusiastic project. Sadly, that was not to be. In three years, the film still 
remains
incomplete. And now, half way through, the films might see another probable 
delay - this time,
it is not the ‘busy-as-bee’ Rai who’s creating trouble. It’s the script which 
has played the
spoilsport. Reportedly the script will be re-worked before the remaining 40% of 
the film is
shot. 
“Bharatbala wanted the script in a specific manner. He is worried because the 
film has already
gone beyond the scheduled time. He wants to redo the script and is hopeful of 
completing it in
a year,” says a source. Director Bharatbala says that he wants to achieve a 
certain “level of
perfection.” But with so many films in her kitty, will Rai spare dates now? 
“She is an
extremely professional actor. We are doing the script again because it is for 
the betterment of
the movie,” reasons Bharatbala, who plans to start the shooting next year in 
Rajasthan and Agra
and release it a few months after that. 
With Akbar Khan’s ‘Taj Mahal- An Eternal Love Story’ releasing this month, 
Bharatbala isn’t
unnerved. “Our film is more about passion and love. It doesn’t really delve 
incisively into
Mughal politics and focuses primarily on relationships,” clarifies the 
director. Shot on
large-scale IMAX format, the image quality of this film is eight stories high 
with a
wrap-around 12,000-watt digital sound.
