Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone had last shot for Pathan on April 12, after which director Siddharth Anand had called for a two-day schedule break. However, before the team could reunite, the Maharashtra government imposed a lockdown on April 15. Now, as the state government has extended the junta curfew by another fortnight, the production team at Yash Raj Films is set to begin the groundwork for the next schedule. This will enable them to get a jumpstart on the shoot in mid-June, should the restrictions be lifted then.
“While some members of the crew have received their jabs, the majority will be vaccinated over the next week. Buzz in the industry is that the government will give a green signal to shoots after June 15. That way, the team will be ready to begin filming in a bio-bubble. The production house is treading carefully, given the impact of the second wave, and will film the portions entirely inside the Yash Raj studio in Andheri,” reveals a source.
mid-day reached out to YRF, which remained unavailable for comment.
