Trivia

Vindalosers: How to Win in India

Edit
Associate producer Ashish Gupta knew so little about the game of cricket, that he continually referred to it as "baseball" throughout the shoot.
Former test opener Justin Langer actually came over to Nikos's house for the on-camera interview that features in the film. He drank French Earl Grey and showed the guys some private What's App messages from Shane Warne.
The first day of the Indian shoot happened to be the day Donald Trump won the US presidential election. Somewhat presciently, Ashish Gupta commented "US is f--ked now" when he heard the news.
The Indian part of the shoot coincided with Indian Prime Minister Nahendra Modi's snap decision to ban 500 and 1000 rupee banknotes. The crew had to subsist for the better part of a month with literally no cash.
Associate producer Ashish Gupta's phone literally rang for the entire shoot, constantly disturbing interviews, private moments and brave confessions. On the plus side, the crew learned the tune of his ringtone perfectly and still sing it to this day.
