Arbaaz Khan filmed for Keshhav Panneriy’s Indo-American co-production, Jeena Isi Ka Naam Hai, in West Virginia, New York City and Maryland recently. The high point of the shoot was filming inside the Constitutional Hall of the White House. Sandwiched between the George Washington memorial and Vice President Joe Biden’s residence, the sprawling white-marbled ballroom was lit up for the first time for a Hindi film sequence.

“It took us almost a year to get permission. I applied more than 15 times before we were allowed, only because some of my line producers and crew members are American,” Keshhav, who has written and directed the suspense thriller, told Mirror.

Manjari Fadnis’s character is to receive an award from the American President and her date for the night is Arbaaz, an American businessman.
