TIL Desk Bollywood/ After Morocco and Vienna, the team of “Tiger Zinda Hai” will shoot in Abu Dhabi over a 65-day schedule from May 4 at multiple locations in the city. A set is being designed by some of those workers who helped to build the “Star Wars” set in 2013.
The Yash Raj Films (YRF) project is a sequel to the blockbuster film “Ek Tha Tiger”. Directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, it features superstar Salman Khan and actress Katrina Kaif, who are both happy to be shooting there.
Salman said in a statement: “‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ is a film of sizeable scale and context. Abu Dhabi, with a variety of locations, and gracious hosts, is ideal to shoot for a film like this one. I hope that the entire unit will enjoy our time here.”
Katrina feels the city fits in perfectly with the movie’s story. “I look forward to shooting in eye-catching locations and on the impressive set here,” she added. Work has begun on the construction of a 20,000 sq metres backlot for the movie’s shoot.
