This is one of those locations that fits the profile of our site just so nicely. In the sense that it is for sites like these that WhereWasItShot exists. The movie Kandhasamy might not have captured the goodwill of the audience bu the locations where the movie was shot definitely caught ours. And this bull ring being one of the most popular tourist attractions in Mexico City, it didn’t come as a surprise that the film crew decided to shoot a sequence of the song here.
About the location (from here):
The Plaza de Toros in Mexico City is the world’s largest bullring. Also called simply Plaza Mexico, this bullring can hold up to 45,000 people, and bullfights have been entertaining locals and visitors alike at this space since 1946. Located next to the stadium Estadio Azul, home of the Mexican soccer club Cruz Azul, the bullring also hosts boxing matches.
The original bullring in Mexico City was located in the Condesa neighborhood, but it was replaced by the Plaza Mexico in the mid twentieth century. Recent high-profile boxing fights have brought extra attention to the Plaza de Toros Mexico City, including the third bout between Julio César Chávez and Frankie Randall. The best time to try and catch a bullfight is during the season of November through March, which is the dry time of year. Tickets aren’t difficult to come by, and they can be purchased at hotels, tourist booths, and the bullring box office itself for a price that is usually between 2 and 25 USD.
