Interest in Thugs of Hindostan is booming and any scrap of information from the set is being eagerly solicited. Often enough leaked pictures of the cast have also emerged in cyberspace, which has not gone down well with its leading man, Aamir Khan in particular. Now we hear that the cast and crew have been expressly forbidden from discussing any aspect of the forthcoming third schedule, as Amitabh Bachchan, Aamir Khan and Fatima Sana Shaikh head to Thailand for the next lap of shooting. Touted to be a very important schedule, all have been instructed to keep completely mum about the nature of the shoot.

Of course, that only serves to increase interest, and raise expectations further! Buzz has it that the three actors will film mammoth action scenes for this period action-adventure, written and directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya.

Incidentally, Katrina Kaif is not part of this schedule. The Tiger Zinda Hai stunner is evidently busy promoting her upcoming Salman Khan-co-starrer and will join the cast later.
Aamir has been sounding rather miffed by all the speculation about the film’s story. Recently he reacted sharply to the suggestion that Thugs… was a biopic. “‘I don’t understand why people build their own story, if you are really good at cooking stories join Bollywood and contribute for a better cause!” he smirked, adding, “There are many scriptwriters who don’t have this talent and end up copying Hollywood movies that give Bollywood a bad name.”

Getting back to the Thailand schedule, we can safely guess that Aamir has also toted his fave fitness trainer, Rakesh Udiyar along. Especially since his co-star Fatima also continues to train with the same instructor! Rakesh had trained Aamir and Fatima in Dangal as well, and has now been putting Fatima through rigorous functional training as well for her role in Thugs… This mentor and protegee have so much in common, don’t they!
