Interestingly, Ali had recently mentioned about Salman's and Disha's circus sequence which will also mark their introductory scene in the film. He said, “The idea is to create an Indian-Russian circus-like Raj Kapoor’s Mera Naam Joker. Performers from all over the world are flying down for the circus tricks which will be a mix of trapeze hoops and rope stunts. This is Salman and Disha’s introduction. He plays a daredevil stunt motorcyclist in the circus while she is a trapeze artiste. Salman and Disha will go through a metamorphosis through the course of the film.”

Disha has been training hard for her role and has wrapped up the first schedule of the film while Salman is currently in Malta filming his scenes.

While reports had suggested that Disha might be playing Salman's sister in the film; it was recently clarified that Tabu plays Salman's sister.
