Nishant Malkani shares his experience visiting the Shankaracharya Temple in Srinagar; an integral part of Sony SAB’s new show Pashminna
Sony SAB’s ‘Pashminna - Dhaage Mohobbat Ke’ is an extraordinary tale of love between Pashminna and Raghav, brilliantly portrayed by Isha Sharma and Nishant Malkani, who belong to two very different worlds. Set against the picturesque landscapes of Srinagar and Gulmarg, the show promises to bring a large-screen cinematic experience to the small screen for its audiences.
The team of Pashminna, made significant efforts to ensure the shooting locations build the show’s narrative seamlessly. They diligently explored nearly a hundred houseboats before settling on one with a stunning view of the Shankaracharya Temple. The chosen houseboat not only infuses authenticity but also plays an important role in the show’s story and highlights the peaceful beauty of Dal Lake.
Nishant Malkani, who will be portraying the character of Raghav, said, “During my shoot in Srinagar when I had a day off and decided to visit the Shankaracharya Temple. I had noticed this beautiful temple while shooting at the houseboat where Pashminna lives. It took me approximately 45 minutes to reach the temple's main entrance, and from there, the real journey to the temple began as I had to climb about 250 steps. But despite the climb being physically enduring, there was this remarkable sense of positivity during the climb. It was almost like the very essence of the place was uplifting. Once I reached the temple, and looked down on the city of Srinagar, I realized how the story set in Kashmir is incomplete with the backdrop of this divine temple. Kashmir's charm is truly unparalleled, and the view from the temple is simply incomparable, unlike anything I've ever seen.”
