Blue City



Jodhpur — known as the Blue City for the color of its buildings — is the second largest city in Rajasthan, the largest state of the Republic of India, standing at the edge of the large Thar Desert, which has an edge paralleling the Sutlej-Indus river valley along its border with Pakistan.

Most of the buildings in the old quarter are painted blue to signify the Bhraman (Priest) class, but non-Brahmins soon followed suit, as the color was said to deflect the heat and deter mosquitoes, and suddenly everything turned blue, creating a broad vision of indigo from the hilltops.

Saawariya


It's a merger of raga-based melodies with a Broadway-styled play.

It's a fairytale world that existed in mind of director Sanjay Leela Bhansali, a world in a state of the abstract and unattainable. Maybe in a state of Love..

It's Saawariya.  Based on Fyodor Dostoevsky's White Nights,that film has a certain studio-generated atmosphere and a certain colour that to represented the flavour of love. Sanjay Leela Bhansali desired to give Saawariya a poetic approach by visuals itself.Every frame of the film looks like a painting. Every song has been lensed and lit differently and stands apart from the other. The experience has been magical and fulfilling.
Saawariya is sheer poetry in motion.
