shooting in Taj MAhal

They must've got special permissions for shooting the film parts in Taj Mahal.... Or was it anything else?

It's not real Taj Mahal. It's a CGI graphics 3D model of Taj Mahal. If one watches movie in HD, they can notice that some people walking around Taj Mahal are computer models. Even the trees are fake that can be seen.
Furthermore, the Pyramid and the Great Wall of China are also made using computer graphics.
Also, they couldn't get enough Indian actors for these scenes, hence they've used western actors dressed in traditional Indian dresses.

I know there was CGI used in the filling in of a lot of scenes but the list of filming location also includes a lot of those places mentioned above including China, India and Africa. It's clearly not totally studio created, though I doubt that there were guys riding motor-bikes atop The Great Wall of China. Would that have even been allowed?

I appreciate you sharing your point of view... But as a small suggestion, control your anger and hatred man! India is secular and every religion gets to live here. There is nothing we can do to prevent that so ACCEPTANCE is a better option, I guess...

Wow, your rant is completely off topic. You were looking for a place to unload all that anger, and you found it.
