It was raining on Gandhi street!

One saturday afternoon of a sunny January day, the staff of "Life of Pi" was standing on Gandhi street. They had blocked all the traffic: no cars, no bikes, no one could be in the street because of the shooting.

This scene was the one when Pi the hero is coming in Petit Séminaire school. In the street, people wore clothes from the 60' s. There were also old cars from this period.

Ang Lee, the director of the film, wanted this scene to be rainy. So all the technicians had installed long pipes on the terraces of all the houses boarding the street and they sprayed water all over the street during the shooting.

It was amazing to see the rain on Gandhi street on a shiny saturday of January!
