Development[edit]
In an interview with The Telegraph, Imtiaz Ali, the director of the film stated, "Highway has been a story that has stayed with me for 15 years. There was something in it that didn’t die. Usually you lose interest in a story beyond a certain point. But with Highway, there was something very subtle, yet something very influential. I intended Highway to be the first film that I ever made." While penning the script he stated he had to change many scenes of the film Highway because he felt they were becoming too similar to his previous film, Jab We Met.He claimed the film to be his first digital movie.[4] In the April 2013 interview with the same, he said Highway is primarily the story of two characters from very different backgrounds — played by Randeep Hooda and Alia Bhatt — who take the road trip across six states in a truck.[5]
Casting[edit]
In December 2012, reports emerged that Imtiaz Ali has cast Randeep Hooda and Alia Bhatt for his upcoming film Highway.[6] However, in February 2013 the casting was officially confirmed.[7] Ali claimed that earlier he was looking out for an older actress to match up with Hooda. However, the role went to Alia Bhatt that made effect on his film script.[4]
Crew[edit]
As per previous collaboration of Ali with the composer A.R. Rahman, the latter's inclusion in the project though initially rumored[8] was confirmed by March 2013. In an interview with The Telegraph Ali stated that he wasn’t even thinking of A.R. Rahman to score for this film. However, after reading the script Rahman agreed to score.[4] The film is produced by Sajid Nadiadwala under his new production house White Window and Imtiaz Ali is the co-producer. The cinematography will done by Anil Mehtaand assisted by vismay patel . Resul Pookutty was roped in for the film's sound design. Lyricist Irshad Kamil will be penning the songs.[9][10]
Filming[edit]
Filming began in early March 2013 on highways of India. Imtiaz Ali quoted, "Highway is emotionally charged, physically strenuous". The first look as a snap at the filming location featuring the director and the lead actors was released in March 2013.[11]Initially, the director planned to shoot along Bengal-Bihar-Odisha highway road belt but later opted to shoot along the road highways of Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh and Kashmir, making the film first of its kind to shoot such. Scenes were shot in Kuchaman valley where the sand dunes provided the terrain transitions that were necessarily required.[5] In mid-April 2013, the crew was off to Gurais, Kashmir to shoot a song and some sequences in the valley.[12]Scenes in Aru valley were also canned.[13] By May 2013, nearly seventy percent of the filming was completed.[3]
