Production[edit]
The team for the song visited several countries to picturize the song 'Poovukul', which featured scenes with seven famous buildings, dubbing Aishwarya Rai as the 'eighth wonder of the world'.[1] Shankar admitted that due to no real list being present, thought had been put into which wonders were selected.[2] The team made a thirty-day trip around the world stopping to can scenes at the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Colosseum, the Empire State Building, the Great Wall of China, the Taj Mahal, the Egyptian pyramids, and the Eiffel Tower. The death of Princess Diana had delayed filming in France for the Paris schedule.
The first part of the song was shot in Paris, France. Later filming moved to Rome and Pisa in Italy. Thirdly in New York City, United States, then to Giza, Egypt, and on to Great Wall of China and lastly at Taj Mahal in India. For the most part, Jeans was surrounded by world events of varying sorts and for Shankar, the cast and crew of the film described the experiences as 'tremendously vivid and memorable'.[3]
