Black Friday: A few stark details
- IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,February 06 2007]
In order to stick to authenticity in his forthcoming film Black Friday, director Anurag Kashyap and his team shot the important scene of the RDX bombs landing in India prior to the Mumbai blast in 1993 in the same village that the RDX actually landed  Shikhadi.
ÂWe shot in the same village of the coolies which was actually picked up by the police post blasts because the night when the RDX arrived, the villagers were paid Rs. 1000 but they had no idea what contained in those ships, says Anurag Kashyap.
The actors in the movie faced tremendous difficulties during the shooting of this scene due to several technical details.
The actors as well as the crew were on boats in the ocean and there was a lot of motion sickness.
ÂWe shot the entire night and all of us after delivering our dialogues would go and throw up every time due to motion sicknessÂ, says actor Pavan Malhotra who plays Tiger Memon in the film.
Black Friday is based on the events leading up to and the investigation thereafter of the 1993
