Description: During the Rio era, Duran Duran became known for treating their music videos like short films, shooting on location in Sri Lanka with director Russell Mulcahy. The exotic visuals weren’t just for style—they were part of a deliberate push to break into the emerging MTV market, a move that helped them become one of the first bands to truly harness the channel’s power for global fame.
