Nahargarh Fort – Jaipur

Who can ever forget the beer drinking competition that Aamir Khan indulges while simultaneously balancing himself on the edge of a really steep fort lie structure? Well, this location is where this sequence was filmed. This place is nothing but the public water tank of the Nahargarh fort. It is indeed remarkable that public are still allowed to take a dip in this pool and that one can reach almost near the steps of the pool in a two-wheeler. After the movie was shot here, the place has been re-christened as Rang De Basanti point. Well, no surprises there, we guess.

Movies shot at this location:
Beer game from Rang De Basanti
Khalbali Hai Khalbali from Rang De Basanti
Solla Solla from Thiruvannamalai

About this location (from Wiki):
Nahagarh Fort stands on the edge of the Aravalli Hills, overlooking the pink city of Jaipur in the Indian state of Rajasthan. The view of the city from the fort is breath taking. Along with Amber Fort and Jaigarh Fort it formed a strong defence ring for the city. During the Sepoy revolt of 1857, Nahagarh served as a refuge for Europeans fleeing from the havoc created by mutineers in neighboring states. The word Nahargarh means the abode of tigers. Legends say that it was name after Prince Nahar whose spirit haunted the place and obstructed construction of the fort.
