So far it’s been impossible for the superstar to visit these towns, let alone shoot in them. But now it was felt that the sequel of Dabangg must move to a more authentic milieu than Wai which was camouflaged as a small town in Uttar Pradesh in Dabangg.
In Dabangg 2 the characters move to Lucknow and Kanpur.
And Salman insisted they shoot on real location this time.A huge security bandobast is now being prepared to tackle any eventuality.
Says a source close to the project, “Salman’s fans in the Northern belt are not your usual fans. They are aggressive and violent. Besides the security being arranged by the authorities a small army of security forces is being put together to ensure no untoward incident happens when Salman shoots in these volatile locations.”
Says Arbaaz, “Yes, we’re starting shooting on 9 March in Mumbai only. Then we will be shooting in Kanpur and Lucknow. The situation is being looked into.”
