Filming on location in Krakow with Film Polska and Katrina Kaif

"Beauty brands need a beautiful face and a beautiful place," says Samrat Das Gupta, Creative director at Situations Advertising, explaining why Krakow was chosen as a filming location by Yardley London: “The decision-making process is simple – if it has the wow factor, let’s do it!”

Film Polska Productions of Krakow, in collaboration with Classics Films from Mumbai, shot a TV commercial for Yardley London Deo at Slowacki Theater in Krakow. The commercial featured Katrina Kaif, one of India’s most famous film stars.

The shoot had 100 extras, five featured actors and six dancers. All the actors were cast by Choice Casting, the in-house agency for Fim Polska.
