The work on Ali Abbas Zafa's next directorial featuring Salman Khan and Priyanka Chopra, Bharat, has begun. All the actors have started preparing for the film. While Salman will directly hop on to the shooting of the film once he is back in the country completing his currently ongoing Da-Bangg: The Tour Reloaded in the US, Disha and Priyanka are just polishing their skills for their respective roles.
In fact, as per a report in a leading daily, Disha has started training with local Mumbai circus artistes. The actress is playing the role of a trapeze artist and she has to take a formal training for the same. The report has also mentioned that Ali has decided to get on board an international trapeze crew who will train Disha from July 14-15.
The report has quoted a source elaborating on the news, "Even though the film spans across decades and ends in the 2000s, Disha’s character won’t age as she is portraying the younger turn of the lot which is set in the 1960s, unlike Salman and Priyanka who will sport five different looks. Bharat goes on the floors around 20 July and usually the stunts she is required to perform in the film take years to master but she is to complete training in less than a month".
Earlier, it was reported that both Salman and Priyanka will be carrying five different looks in the film, as their characters will be seen aged through the years. For this, while VFX, makeup and prosthetics will do their work on Priyanka, Salman's look is going to be challenge. Ali though has a solution for that too. The director will make use of a special 'age-reduction technique that was seen in the 2008 Brad Pitt-starrer The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button.'
Bharat, also featuring Sunil Grover in a pivotal role, is slated for release on June 5 next year.
