Vicky Kaushal & Sara Ali Khan to shoot for 'Ashwatthama' in UAE, Iceland & India

Undoubtedly, one of the most ambitious projects that is being planned for a long time now is upcoming mega film, The Immortal Ashwatthama.

It is said to be one of the biggest and costliest films being planned and will be a modern take on King Ashwatthama from Mahabharata. As we know, it stars Vicky Kaushal as the main man, the film will also star actor Sara Ali Khan as the female lead.

Now reports suggest that the film goes on the floors in the month of September with a five-month marathon schedule. The idea is to wrap up the film by January 2022 and being a post-production heavy film, invest time on the edit and post production of the film. A tentative shoot schedule has been prepared.

The makers also suggest that the film will be shooting primarily in India, UAE and Iceland. The initial plan was to shoot extensively in multiple European countries however, with so much uncertainty around the Covid scenario, the makers have zeroed in on UAE as their primary location with India. They however will be flying down to Iceland for a brief schedule. While the recce in the Gulf is done, a team is expected to air dash to Iceland soon for a recce.
