The actor was recently in Dubai to recce for the project, and has already finalised a location there, a cycling path where the actress who plays Sindhu will train. Talking about it, the actor asserted, “As a producer I like to be hands-on with my productions. I finalised a cycling path for a scene. In Dubai desert, they have made cycling tracks where thousands of cyclists come during the day and evening, park their cars and cycle for hours. It’s an unexplored place in movies and I want to use it for shooting and training. It’s a beautiful place for an athlete to train. I want to also shoot in China and Seoul.”
