5 Amazing Love Stories That Were Filmed In Kashmir

The upcoming romantic drama ‘Kushi’ is grabbing all the eyeballs and Kashmir is definitely one of them. The audiences are liking the trailer and songs and also the desirable pair of Vijay Deverakonda and Samantha Ruth Prabhu. But besides this, the major centre of attraction in this highly anticipated movie is the beautiful visuals of Kashmir that have been captured well in the trailer and the songs. The scenic beauty of Kashmir is looking absolutely eye-pleasing and justifies the film's appeal aptly.

Before you watch ‘Kushi’, let's have a look at some films that were filmed in Kashmir:

‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’

The sequences of Srinagar and Ladakh in late Yash Chopra’s last directorial ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’ starring Shah Rukh Khan, Katrina Kaif, and Anushka Sharma are particularly noteworthy. The ‘Jiya Re’ song, featuring the lead cast was filmed in the Ladakh and Kashmir areas. The most beautiful vistas of the Kashmir Valley, which serve as the scenic backdrop for the most astounding sequences, are what give the movie its widespread appeal. Late Yash Chopra frequently visited this wonderland and chose Kashmir as his preferred location to shoot all of his movies.

‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’

Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone starrer ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’ was shot in Kashmir. In Kashmir’s Pahalgam and Gulmarg, makers caught the scene's snow-capped mountains and picturesque backdrop. A few of the movie's portions were also taken in Srinagar and include the group of people exploring the highlands in Betab Valley, Aru Valley, and Chandanwari. The most breathtaking vistas of the Pahalgam and Gulmarg sites are seen in this film.

‘Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani’

The recently released ‘Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani’ had a major song ‘Tum Kya Mile’ shot in Kashmir. The lead cast Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, and director Karan Johar shot the much-popular song in the valleys of Kashmir and the audience appreciates the song.

‘Fitoor’

The love drama ‘Fitoor’ starring Aditya Roy Kapur and Katrina Kaif is a movie that beautifully portrays the splendour of Kashmir Valley as ‘Paradise On Earth’. To film the love drama, the director had no choice but to use Kashmir Valley's stunning scenery to symbolize their intense love. The movie features shooting locations surrounding Dal Lake, as well as the red chinars, green meadows, and a snow-covered environment. The Dal Lake shores of Nishat Bagh and Srinagar, which the movie depicts as having beautiful vistas, were both used for some of the filming.

‘Notebook’

One of the lesser-known films of recent times ‘Notebook’ has a wonderful storyline about a girl and a boy falling in love via a notebook. The beautiful locales, the shikaras and the beautiful scenic views of the Dal Lake were picturised so aesthetically that you’re left amazed at the natural beauty. The film directed by Nitin Kakkar had Pranutan Bahl and Zaheer Iqbal in the lead roles.
