Behind the scenes with Hrithik and Katrina! Stars caught on camera during Greek shoot for action-comedy Bang Bang
By SHIVANI MANKERMI
Snapshots posted on a fan site provide a sneak peek into Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif's much-hyped upcoming biggie, Bang Bang.
Although there is a strict no-camera policy on the sets, the pictures - which seem to be taken with a cellphone - show the two stars on an outdoor schedule in the city of Santorini in Greece.
Bang Bang, an action comedy, is the official Bollywood remake of the Hollywood super-hit Knight and Day.

Hrithik reprises Tom Cruise's role from the original while Katrina plays the character made famous by Cameron Diaz.
Considerable buzz has been generated around the film over the fact that Kahaani director Sujoy Ghosh will be writing the Hindi version for director Siddharth Anand, best known for Salaam Namaste and Bachna Ae Haseeno.
The Greek schedule is reportedly meant to picturise a romantic song with Katrina and Hrithik. The two stars have been shooting in Santorini for about a week now.
The images posted show the actors in a cafe by the blue waters of the Aegean Sea. Katrina looks stunning as ever in a short white summer dress with her hair pulled to one side and a flower pinned into her tresses to complete the beachside charm.
Hrithik is seen strumming a guitar in a sleeveless shirt that accentuates his biceps, teamed with bright orange pants. In the sequence being shot, Hrithik was seen wooing Katrina, who slowly descended from a gallery to sit by him and then lean on his shoulder.
Ahmed Khan is the choreographer of Bang Bang. In all, three songs of the film will be shot in the Mediterranean region.

The songs are expected to be different from the typically-shot Bollywood love songs. The film is being shot across several parts of India and abroad.
Shooting in Greece is expected to go on till July and then vital portions will be filmed in various other locations in Europe. The Kashmir schedule will be shot later this year.
Bang Bang will also mark the comeback of veteran villain Danny Denzongpa in a pivotal role.
The film, which will see Hrithik and Katrina engage in high-octane action, marks the entry of Fox Star Studios of Hollywood's 20th Century Fox franchise into Bollywood film production.
