Fan frenzy as Bollywood stars arrive

The actors, who form part of the principal cast of Yash Raj Film's Dhoom 2, are in KwaZulu-Natal for a demanding three-week shoot.
The other cast members, Hrithik Roshan, Aishwarya Rai and Bipasha Basu, arrived earlier this week.

AB Moosa, managing director of the Avalon group of cinemas, who is facilitating the film shoot said: "Everything is running smoothly. '
"The director, Sanjay Gadhvi, seems pleased with the location and has managed to shoot wonderful settings like the backdrop of sunsets and so forth."
