After a media report claimed that the shooting location of the upcoming neo-noir action thriller, ‘Vikram Vedha’, was changed from Uttar Pradesh to Dubai at the behest of Hrithik Roshan, the makers of the film have issued a clarification. They said that only a small portion of the film was shot in the UAE back in October-November of 2021 as it was the only location that provided the infrastructure for a bio-bubble for a film of such a big scale. Reliance Entertainment, which has bankrolled the project, said in a statement, “We have been noticing a lot of misleading and totally unsubstantiated reporting on ‘VikramVedha’ shooting locations. We clearly want to state that Vikram Vedha has been shot extensively in India, including Lucknow.” The statement added: “A portion of the film was shot in the United Arab Emirates in October-November of 2021 since it was the only location providing the infrastructure for a bio-bubble that accommodated a crew of such scale, also allowing the building of sets in a studio during the pre- ceding months of the shoot. “We chose to do that out of health and protocol concerns. Any attempt to twist these sets of facts is clearly mischievous and untruthful.”
