Vidhu Vinod Chopra's upcoming Parineeta - The Married Woman has just completed its first major shooting spell, a�50-day schedule, in various�locations spanning Darjeeling and Kolkata.��
The first schedule in Darjeeling started rolling on October 29, and tossed Saif Ali Khan onto the famed toy train -- the very train his mother Sharmila Tagore made unforgettable in�Aradhana's Mere sapno ki rani.
The experience triggered off many a sepia-toned special memory for�the Chhote Nawab, and�hysteria among the local residents, who thronged the shoot just to glimpse the actor, in all his blue-blooded glory.
Parineeta�is an adaptation of a Sarat Chandra Chatterjee classic, and a hallmark in Bengali literature. The story is an intense romance, traversing through the differences between the male and female perception of the very concepts of love and commitment.
The�film�is a Vidhu Vinod Chopra production and directed by veteran ad filmmaker Pradeep Sarkar.�It stars Saif, Sanjay Dutt, Raima Sen, and introduces Vidya Balan. The music is scored by Shantanu Moitra.
The film is almost complete, and the production unit will add�the finishing touches in Mumbai.
Parineeta�is scheduled for an April�release.
