But what about Indian films? Have the Islands been shown on the big screen in Bollywood movies?

Films Shot in Bahamas

Bollywood’s first underwater film ‘Blue’ (starring Akshay Kumar) was partly shot in The Bahamas (Nassau). Most of its action scenes were shot underwater in the Bahamas, for which the cast had to undergo extensive training in underwater stunts.

It was one of the most expensive Indian movies made at the time of its release, because of its multi-star cast, because of its exotic shooting locations, and also because it featured a guest performance by ‘Kylie Minogue’ (in the ‘chiggy wiggy’ song).

Apparently, international pop star ‘Kylie Minogue’ was paid a whopping one million dollar to sing a song in the film. And the budget of the film was more than Rs 100 crore.


Here’s the song “Aaj Dil Gustaakh Hai” from the movie Blue featuring Sanjay Dutt & Lara Dutta

While shooting for the film ‘Blue’ in Bahamas, Sanjay Dutt got an opportunity to see his daughter Trishala Dutt (daughter of Sanjay Dutt’s first wife, the late actress Richa Sharma). Sanju’s wife of four months, Manyata was also present. Trishala is a student at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York, and expressed her desire to join films.
