The Police sightseeing / filming in Bombay

Attendees: The Police, film crew

In the morning The Police were photographed and filmed wearing Indian costumes and practising with swords. Sting managed to injure Anne Nightingale with one.

The band spent the day sightseeing and filming in Bombay, India.

Sting and Andy Summers visited HMV's music showroom (where Ravi Burman had arranged a get-together) and then went to an Indian Classical Instruments shop. It looks like they bought or rented a Sitar and a Tabla, because later in the day they were filmed performing a song that sounds like the Indian version of Walking On The Moon - probably at their hotel.

Today Sting was wearing a white t-shirt with and his blue yellow sweater (sometimes both, sometimes just the t-shirt), dark trousers and white shoes. Andy was wearing a Hawaii shirt (probably with a white t-shirt underneath, because that's what he was wearing at a record shop in Around The World and at the instruments shop in Police File no. 2) and white trousers. Stewart was probably wearing a black Steel Pulse shirt, black trousers and black shoes.
