| Location | Rishikesh, India |
The Beatles, while in India, plan to do a documentary on Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, even going as far as calling London to fly out film equipment. Dennis O'Dell remembered, "When the cable came, I was absolutely amazed and I thought, I must get out there and stop that. So I told them about the Lord Of The Rings idea that I’d been discussing with United Artists. And almost instantly they started casting themselves in roles, and John told me that he could literally write a whole double album around it." The idea was not used, and shortly afterwards an American company came to do teir own film on the Maharishi.
