New Delhi: The trauma centre of All India
Institute of Medical Sciences was in the spotlight on Tuesday not
due to any medical reasons but because it was used as a set
for the shooting of the upcoming movie titled "No One Killed
Jessica".
The filming incidentally took place a day after the
Supreme Court upheld the life term given to Manu Sharma for
the murder of Delhi-based model Jessica Lall in 1999.
"It is a one day affair. The film is being shot at the
AIIMS Trauma Centre OPD and the ramp," sources in the hospital
said.
'Nobody killed Jessica' is an upcoming Bollywood film by
director Rajkumar Gupta and is believed to be based on the
controversial Jessica Lall murder case.
The film stars Rani Mukerji and Vidya Balan, in which the
former plays the role of a journalist while the latter
plays a character close to Jessica's elder sister, Sabrina.
"The cast and the crew of the film have been strictly
instructed not to disturb patients or inflict any damage to
hospital property," the AIIMS source said.
Mukherjee and Balan were both at the hospital shooting
for various scenes.
A doctor said, "All (shooting) is being carried out in a
hush hush manner."
