Problem 2 - Entrance Test

In ‘Guide’ (1965) the iconic song ‘Aaj Phir Jeene Ki Tamanna Hai’ was shot in the ruins of a 10th-century Chandela temple. In which specific complex within the Chhatarpur district did the filming take place?

Correct: D

Vijay Anand wanted a visually arresting contrast to the movie’s desert segments and chose the Devi Jagadambi Temple enclosure (Khajuraho) for its erotic sculptures that metaphorically echoed Rosie’s liberation. The song was filmed in early morning light to avoid tourist crowds and censor objections.
