They sent staff from here to Italy for recce and finally recreated the set in India."

The source continues, "They also wanted to get an entire set of the Italy Gondola, but time didn't permit. The commercial was shot in exactly two days. A few Italians were flown in for that authentic feel."

GM (Marketing) Ms Shardah Uniyal confirms, "We wanted to shoot in Italy and our team had also gone to Italy but Preity had to leave for IPL and we did not want to postpone the launch, so we recreated the set in India."
