MUMBAI: Actor Varun Dhawan has claimed that his upcoming action-drama Dishoom features Bollywood’s most expensive chase sequence. The film, which also stars John Abraham and Jacqueline Fernandez, features a lot of adrenaline-pumping action scenes, including a helicopter chase sequence, said to be the most expensive and the longest in the history of Bollywood.
The 11-12 minute-long sequence apparently cost its makers a whopping Rs. 3 crore. “Dishoom is my very first action film and I am delighted to be a part of the most expensive action sequence. It was very tough but I thoroughly enjoyed myself shooting for it,” Dhawan said. An international crew was employed for the scene, which was shot in Morocco.
The movie, directed by Varun’s brother’s Rohit Dhawan, is about India’s top batsman who goes missing in West Asia and two copswho team up for a 36-hour-long manhunt. The film also stars Akshaye Khanna and Saqib Salem. The movie has been produced by Sajid Nadiadwala under the banner of Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment. It will hit theatres on July 29. – PTI
