Photoshoot: 13th February, 2010 (Red Fort, New Delhi)
So here are we with the final details of the photoshoot planned for 13th of February.We had some mixed responses regarding the choice of venue and from the poll it seems a lots of guys like Chandni chowk ! Perhaps because of its food charm :)
Having said that since majority of you opted for the time slot of 8am but according to our spy sources ;) there isn't much of an activity in Chandni Chowk at 8:00 a.m.
Time & Venue: Red Fort, Delhi at 8:00 am
Date & Day: 13th February, Saturday
Duration: 2:00 hours
Assembling Time: 7:50 am
How to get there?
By Bus: From CP you can take DTC bus 185, 255 or 271 or a rickshaw would cost Rs. 50+
By Metro: The fort is within walking distance (1km east) from Old Delhi railway station or Chandni Chowk metro station.
Nearest Metro Station: Kashmiri Gate
Functional Metro Station: Kashmiri Gate
Admission Fee: INR 11 for Indian citizens
So after some exploration, we have zeroed down to the next best option which is Red Fort (Lal Qila), the grand legacy of the Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan. The beauty off-course is that it opens at your preferred time which is 8:00 am.
