Director Ayan Mukerji has wrapped up the Spain schedule of his upcoming film War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan and N.T.R Jr. in the lead roles.
The filmmaker took to social media to share the news with a photo of him posing with the body doubles of Hrithik and NTR.
For the past two weeks, Mukerji has been shooting for the film in Spain and has now wrapped the first schedule. According to reports, Mukerji wrapped the biggest chase sequence in the film without the presence of the two lead actors.
The Spain schedule of War 2 was reportedly shot in various locations across the country, including Madrid, Barcelona, and Seville. The film is said to be an action thriller that will pick up where the first film left off.
A source told Bollywood Hungama, “It’s a new technique of shooting for feature films. The action blocks of a lot of films in today’s time are shot without the involvement of lead actors. Soon after, the faces of the body double are replaced using the body swap technology. The same was used for Pathaan as well for the action blocks shot in Dubai and Russia. Hrithik and NTR Jr. will start shooting for War only in December.”
The Spain schedule lasted for around 12 days, and Ayan was strict to get a perfect stunt double on board the film. “He auditioned over 50 talents each for both Hrithik and NTR Jr. before getting an ideal body type on board. The stunt double had multiple test shoots with Hrithik and NTR Jr. in Mumbai and Hyderabad before flying off to Spain,” the source told us further.
After this, Ayan will be shooting for another action block before he moves to the conversational and dramatic sequences with Hrithik, NTR Jr., and Kiara.
