ZNMD fame
The festival gained fame in India, after the popular film Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (ZNMD) was released in 2011. The makers created this famous Tomatina festival and to shoot the scene, 16 tons of tomatoes were flown in from Portugal, as the local Spanish tomatoes were not ripe enough. Reportedly, the tomatoes came at a whopping price of Rs 1 crore.
