After SRK, Ajay Devgn now boards the Bulgaria Express

Bollywood has been going places, literally. Ajay Devgn is currently on recce in Bulgaria looking for locations for his second directorial, Shivaay. The action will also be designed there. On June 12, Nikolina Angelkova, Tourism Minister of Bulgaria, announced that the actor-filmmaker has agreed to lend his support to promote tourism in the Balkan nation. He will take part in local activities and will shoot a promotional video when he returns for the shoot which will be shown in India. The idea is undoubtedly to encourage our makers to set their films in Bulgaria.

Interestingly, Ajay's wife Kajol is already in Bulgaria to shoot her upcoming film, Rohit Shetty's Dilwale. Her co-star is Shah Rukh Khan with whom two decades ago she took off on a memorable Euro Rail trip in Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge.

The 46-year-old-actor confirmed the news saying, "The Bulgarian Tourism Ministry has been really supportive to me and my team. To show our appreciation, I will be lending a helping hand to promote Bulgarian tourism. It's a great initiative."

Ajay had initially planned to shoot Shivaay in Canada this January but then he discovered that there was not enough snow.

Also, the logistics didn't work out and they were getting limited time to shoot in the locations shortlisted. So he turned his attention elsewhere and found picture perfect Bulgaria. The film will now kickstart there in January 2016.
