Production: Shoot day 1

Writer's picture: mahnoor rashid khanmahnoor rashid khan


Our shoot was divided into 2 days since we had 2 locations to go to. For the first day, we decided to shoot it on Haveli Barood Khana which was a haveli located in the old walled city of Lahore. Down below are the pictures of the location:

 













A lovely Barood Khana Haveli can be found on the outskirts of Heera mandi. Between Pani Wala Talab and Koocha Langay Mandi is where you'll find the Haveli. This Haveli, also known as Mian Salahuddin's Haveli, is a stunning landmark. Thanks to Mian Yousaf Salahuddin, unquestionably Lahore's cultural maestro, the once-largest armoury in the city has been transformed into a place for glam and cultural evenings and a haven for the city's artistically minded.

As Yousaf Salli, Mian Yousaf Salahuddin is the grandson of Mian Amiruddin and Allama Muhammad Iqbal. In discussing the haveli's historical significance, he noted that it rose to prominence under the reign of Ranjeet Singh.

It was primarily a corps commander's home when it was constructed for the commanding general of the Sikh army about 230 years ago. As it was customary for weapons, ammunition, gunpowder, and other supplies to be maintained with the army chief, it was constructed right across from Lahore Fort and was the largest arsenal outside of the fort. The general lived in a portion of the haveli, with the remaining space being used for offices and a munitions storage facility.
