‘Thugs of Hindostan’: Amitabh Bachchan wraps up Thailand schedule of Aamir Khan-starrer

Thugs of Hindostan is certainly one of the highly anticipated movies of 2018, considering the ensemble cast of Aamir Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif and Dangal girl Fatima Sana Shaikh. Big B, who was shooting for the film in Thailand with Aamir and Fatima, has recently wrapped up the schedule and it seems the actor is quite elated. 

He took to Instagram to post an image from the film’s sets and wrote,  “From the wilds and chills of Thailand after finishing schedule of TOH .. ‘Thugs of HINDOOSTAN ‘ now ready to go back to the warmth of MUMBAI and home ..”.

Well, it seems the veteran actor cannot wait to move out of Thailand’s chills to Mumbai’s warmth. 

Directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya of Dhoom 3 fame, Thugs of Hindostan will see Aamir and Amitabh sharing screen space for the first time. Talking about it, Aamir had earlier tweeted, "Finally, the moment I’ve been waiting for has come… to work with my icon, Mr. Bachchan! Thanks, Adi, Victor, for ‘Thugs of Hindostan’. I’m too thrilled to be working with the actor I have admired all of my life. Shoot starts early next year, and the release has been locked for Diwali 2018. Can’t wait to get started! Fingers crossed."

The director also said in a statement, "The set of the film is in a high-security water zone, with restricted access. Both these ships have been built in the early 18th century style when vessels would carry cannons and other weapons. An international crew has been hard at work creating these elaborate ships in Malta. Most of the portions to be filmed on board these ships involve high-octane action."

Thugs of Hindostan is set to hit the screens during Diwali weekend in 2018.
