the
critically
acclaimed
Maine
Gandhi
Ko
Nahin
Maara,
national
award
winning
director
Jahnu
Baruah's
next
Bollywood
film
is
Har
Pal
which
brings
together
the
'never
seen
before'
pair
of
actor
Shiney
Ahuja
and
actress
Preity
Zinta.
And
interestingly
the
film
produced
by
Tito
will
be
shot
close
to
the
internationally
acclaimed
Assamese
filmmaker's
home
ground
-
Shillong,
which
has
been
rightly
termed
the
Scotland
of
the
East.
"Regarding
the
film,
there
are
a
lot
of
things
still
in
the
pipe
line.
But
I
am
happy
to
showcase
the
beauty
of
the
North
East
through
this
film",
says
the
media
shy
Baruah.
At
a
media
conference
jointly
organized
by
Navjeevan
Films
and
the
Meghalaya
tourism
department
it
was
confirmed
that
Smit
village
in
East
Khasi
Hills
district
has
been
finalised
as
the
shooting
destination.
Preity
Zinta
and
Shiney
Ahuja
will
be
part
of
the
20
day
Shillong
shoot.
Apart
from
the
North
Eastern
hill
station,
the
film
will
also
be
shot
in
Mumbai
and
Kolkata.
'Har
Pal'
has
another
Assamese
connection
in
the
form
of
model-
actress
Dipannita
Sharma
who
also
plays
a
character
in
the
film.
There
are
reports
that
Amitabh
Bachchan
will
also
make
an
appearance
in
the
film
and
if
everything
goes
well,
he
too
will
be
a
part
of
the
Shillong
Shoot.
