The Spanish schedule of work-in-progress film Pathaan, starring Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone, is being shot at several exotic locations. A source told news agency PTI that Pathaan is the first Bollywood project to be filmed in Mallorca, an island off the Mediterranean coast of Spain, and that the next stops will be Cadiz and Jerez, both in the Andalusian region of southern Spain. Filming includes action scenes and "death-defying stunts"; Pathaan director Siddharth Anand is aiming for an unprecedented "a level of scale," PTI's source said.
"Pathaan is the first film to be shot in Mallorca, Spain. It's expensive, exquisite and luxurious setting makes it one of the best tourist destinations of the world and Siddharth Anand and YRF definitely wanted to film Pathaan over here to achieve a level of scale that hasn't been seen before in Hindi cinema! After Mallorca, Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone will head to Cadiz and Jerez for an action schedule that is simply unreal. They will be pushing their bodies to the hilt and filming some death-defying stunts," PTI quoted the source as saying.
Team Pathaan hopes to wrap its Spanish schedule on March 27. Pictures of Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone, both looking fabulously fit and in the shape of their lives, from the sets of Pathaan in Spain went viral recently.
"Siddharth Anand wanted a big international schedule to wow audiences and he has managed to somehow achieve his vision with YRF. From what we have seen in the leaked images, SRK and Deepika are looking absolutely drool-worthy and looks like Sid wants them to scorch the big screen. SRK and DP's pairing has delivered historic blockbusters and there is a definite intent by the makers to make Pathaan their biggest film to date," said PTI's source.
Pathaan, about which little else other than the cast details is known, co-stars John Abraham and will release on January 25, 2023.
