Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham's Pathaan are all set for a grand release on January 25. Siddharth Anand of War fame has directed this spy thriller. The film is produced on a huge scale by Aditya Chopra. The producers have left no stone unturned when it comes to Pathaan as it marks Shah Rukh Khan's comeback film after five long years. Recently, we heard that Pathaan was shot at the frozen Lake Baikal in Siberia. In fact, Pathaan is the first Indian film to be shot at this place.
In a statement, Siddharth said, "We have ensured that we take the action in Pathaan several notches above what Indian audiences have seen in theatres. In fact, we have only shot action sequences that have never been attempted by any Indian film so far. Pathaan promises to deliver the best visual spectacle for people and we have shot a high-speed bike chase sequence on the stunning frozen Lake Baikal in Siberia!”
He further added, "Every piece of equipment needed to shoot this high-risk sequence had to be shipped from Moscow which is almost about 2000 kilometers away from where we were shooting! So, this was a huge task that the production very smoothly handled. We ended up shooting the most visually stunning chase sequence on frozen ice and biting cold and I hope this sequence will make people jump off their seats because we are truly very happy with how it has shaped up.”
