Dozens of midgets for Naksha

  • IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,August 17 2006]

By now everyone is aware about the fact that 'Naksha' is an action adventure revolving around the hunt of something from the centuries old past that could impact the present and define the future of mankind.

As a part of the narrative, for one of the key sequences of the film when Sunny Deol, Viveik Oberoi and Sameera Reddy are on the hunt, they encounter a tribe that comprises primarily of midgets. For this part of the film, the makers actually searched for dozens of real midgets rather than settling for junior artists acting as ones.

There is also a song 'Jatt Yamla' that has been choreographed on the three lead actors as they sing and dance amidst these midgets. A fun number with a 'kabeela' setting, its USP is Sunny Deol dancing a la dad Dharmendra as he did in 'Main Jatt Yamla' decades back.
