Speaking of My Name Is Khan, Mid-Day is also reporting that Karan Johar was applying for permission to shoot at the White House, the residence of US president George Bush and other presidents before him. If he is granted permission, it would mark the first time an Indian movie will be shot there.

Johar, who just returned from the US a couple of days back, admits, “I’m currently working on pre- production. The story of my film takes the lead actors from San Francisco to LA and eventually to Washington DC. I am trying to figure out permissions including locations in and around Washington. I still have a lot of time till I achieve these permissions as I only start the shoot of the movie from February next year.”

Meanwhile a spokesperson for the Nation Security Unit in the US says, “It’s next to impossible to shoot anything in the White House. Especially if you are not a US citizen. One cannot shoot on the grounds. But various people have shot their movies outside the grounds (outside the gates of the White House) to which we have no control over.”
