The coming of age action flick Agent Vinod starring Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor had the locals in Morocco so mesmerised that they would keep track of the shoot locations and would come to watch the filming for hours at a stretch.
The team of Agent Vinod shot for 5 days at a spot they would call 'The Golden Farah,' which is also known as the same in the film. The spot ended up getting so popular that today if tourists take taxis from anywhere in Tangier, they are sure to be driven to 'The Golden Farah'.
Says a production source, “One of the key locations in the central market, Place Socco, where the crew shot for 4/5 days is now known as 'The Golden Farah', the location’s name in the film! So if you take a taxi anywhere in Tangier and ask for The Golden Farah, you are sure to be taken to the place where Agent Vinod was shot!” |
