Music video on world peace to be shot at Taj Mahal
(No Ratings Yet)Iran-born songwriter Nassiri will shoot part of his video on world peace “Love Sees No Colour” at the Taj Mahal in Agra next week.
Nassiri, who has taken permission from the Archaeological Survey of India for the shoot, has earlier filmed parts of it in 16 countries, including Egypt, Israel, Palestine, Berlin, Paris, Russia, China, Japan, Korea. In India, he will shoot in Hindi.
“The amount we spend on military budgets, if we divert it to curb poverty, we can solve all problems. There will be no poverty, no terrorists, no unemployment and with this, there will be no fights and the world will live in peace,” Nassiri told reporters with Lawrence Jordan, the director of the video, and Rajan Khosa, the director of the Indian segment.
Nassiri, who migrated to the US at the age of 20, has become one of the nation’s largest wholesalers of designer labels to mass merchandisers but feels he finds solace in music.
“Music has always been my passion and I am glad that I am getting an opportunity to use it to spread the message of world peace,” he said on the sidelines of the International Film Festival of India here.
On shooting in India, Khosa said that the whole schedule had been devised in a way to show respect to the Taj Mahal. “All necessary permissions are in place,” he said.
Peturbed with violence, Nassiri said, “I am on a world peace movement and it has to come from people to people.” A die hard fan of the late Raj Kapoor, Nassiri loves Indian music and movies. “I have grown watching Raj Kapoor movies,” he said.
