Game Of Thrones & Amitabh Bachchan-Katrina Kaif-Aamir Khan’s Thugs of Hindostan Have Something In Common
As fans await the first Bollywood film on seafaring adventures that has been shot outdoors extensively, read on to know the connection between Thugs Of Hindostan and Global cult TV series, Game Of Thrones...
YRF’s extravagant fantasy action adventure Thugs of
Hindostan holds the promise of delivering a never-seen-before cinematic
experience this Diwali. Having cast two icons of Hindi cinema Amitabh Bachchan
and Aamir Khan together for the first time ever, along with Katrina Kaif and
Fatima Sana Shaikh this visual entertainer is one of the most anticipated
movies of all time. Given its genre, the makers wanted to create unique and
extraordinary visual spectacle that is set as an adventure on the high seas.
To deliver the biggest larger-than-life experience in
theatres, the makers travelled far and wide to scout for locations that
heighten the story-telling. Thugs has been filmed in some of the most
jaw-dropping locations of the world, one of them being the exact location where
the global cult TV series Game of Thrones has been filmed. It is also the first
Bollywood film on seafaring adventures that has been shot outdoors extensively
which will add to the grandness of scale when audiences watch it on big screen.
“Thugs team shot extensively in Malta – the location
where the Game of Thrones was also shot. So, in terms of scale, Thugs will live
up to all the hype that the film has. Malta has some very uncommon, incredible
spots that look outstanding. It is also a place that not many people have been
or seen so there will be incredible novelty for everyone to see the
breath-taking visuals on offer in Thugs. Having created the massive ships and
shot in these extravagant locations, Thugs will be a treat for audiences when
they see it on the big screen,” says a source.
The source adds, “Vijay Krishna Acharya has researched
and dedicated lots of time to set the film which is a fantasy adventure in a
period that no one has seen or has a point of reference. This makes the film
look unique and fresh and massive in scale. Malta is an untapped territory by
film-makers and Thugs will show a world that is new to people which will add to
Thugs’ incredible visual appeal. Thugs also releases in IMAX across the world
so the experience of watching this scale on big screen will be a talking
point.”
Thugs of Hindostan has been shot in some of the most
extravagant locations of the world. From shooting in the rainforests of
Thailand, to the deserts and palaces of Rajasthan, Thugs of Hindostan will wow
audiences of all age-groups with fantastic visual splendor when it releases
this Diwali.
