The cinemas have once again shut down due to the extenuating circumstances caused by the second wave of Covid-19. It’ll be a while before it gets back on its feet.
Although, the industry is moving forward with its big-budget productions with the best hopes for the fate of Bollywood in mind.
Last year when the cases began to reduce and it seemed like Covid-19 was coming to an end, Pathan, starring Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, was launched. The makers are trying are moving heaven and earth to ensure that it becomes a big hit.
The next schedule of Pathan will happen overseas. Some are reporting that the foreign schedule of Pathan will happen in Finland.
However, a source of the Bollywood Hungama says, “Pathan will be shot in three European countries. Which these three countries would be and when this schedule will take place, it’s difficult to say right now. It all depends on the rules in the European Union when they plan to travel. Also, producer Aditya Chopra would like all unit members to be fully vaccinated as this can be mandatory. But the pace of vaccination is slow right now, though it’s expected to pick up in a few weeks thankfully. The makers are also considering whether they can get some crew members from Europe itself, who have completed their full dose of vaccination.”
The source also says, “60% of the shoot is over. The balance of 40% will take place in these foreign locations. All the grandeur and scale will be seen in the final schedule of Pathan. Aditya Chopra wants to go all out and ensure that Pathan looks like a slick product matching international standards. It’s sure to be a treat to watch the film on the big screen.”
