Earlier, about the film’s shoot, a source told Indianexpress.com, “We begin shooting an important sequence that has a circus set up. Since Ali Abbas Zafar is very specific about the details, he roped in Bulgarian gymnasts who will be performing acrobatic moves in this sequence. We will be shooting with Salman Khan, Disha Patani and Sunil Grover. Ali has roped in South Korean action director SeaYoung Oh who had earlier worked with Shah Rukh Khan on Fan.”

Reportedly, Ali Abbas Zafar’s Bharat will showcase him as a daredevil stunt motorcyclist, who will be working at a circus along with Disha Patani, who will be essaying the role of a trapeze artist. Also, both Salman and Priyanka Chopra will be sporting several looks, and will be seen in five to six different avatars. 

The team is geared up to begin shooting for a circus scene set in the late 60’s. About the same, Ali had shared that the idea is to create an Indian-Russian circus like the one created for Mera Naam Joker. The film traces Indian history from 1947 to present times.

Produced by Atul Agnihotri, Bharat will also see Tabu, Sunil Grover, Varun Sharma and Aasif Sheikh.
