What's In My Head: Chaiyya Chaiyya




If you go to India, it's trains all the way. Why aren't we doing this on the Metro? I guess we remember that old adage from George of the Jungle, "Watch out for that tree!"

And I would have thought the best seats would have been on the inside of the train.

Who knew there was a party going on on top?

Phil: The interesting thing about that shot is that it was all done in one take (some five minutes plus) and no one fell off.

Another bit of trivia: Spike Lee used this song as the opening track of Inside Man with clips of the robbers approaching the bank through New York streets, then robbing the bank.

Honest ta gawd, T. I send you to cherry blossoms, and you go right for this. Yes, she has quite the "thrust" of the hip.
