What do Gandhi and Jolie have in common?

Holy Smoke! (1999)

Director: Jane Campion
Cast: Kate Winslet and Harvey Keitel.

The India factor: Aussie filmmaker Jane Campion along with Titanic star Kate Winslet came to India to soak in its sensuality and mysticism. Their objective was largely achieved by filming in authentic locations like Pushkar, near Ajmer in Rajasthan and Delhi. Winslet plays a girl touring India, wherein she finds herself captivated by a religious 'baba'. How her newfound spirituality sets her folks, down under, to panic, forms the crux of the plot.
