Ganapath, starring Tiger Shroff, Kriti Sanon, and Amitabh Bachchan, promises to be a large-scale action entertainer with a lot of VFX. But did you know that the makers have shot an extensive chunk of the film's crucial action sequence in the locales of Ladakh with difficult weather and low oxygen levels? Well, here's director Vikas Bahl's official words on the same.
Vikas Bahl said, "While there have been a lot of films that have shot action in Ladakh before, we got really lucky as we shot on a completely new terrain. It was an abandoned town above Lamayuru where most sequences were shot. So yes, the weather conditions were unfriendly and erratic, with constant dips in oxygen levels. But Tiger, Kriti, and Rehman sir really practiced hard on days off as well as in between action scenes, in spite of the challenging weather conditions and low oxygen levels.""Our base was far from the actual shoot locations, but the entire crew was very supportive and hands-on, as it was not easy shifting equipment, costumes, props, etc. from one terrain to another. So yes, we did manage to pull off a really difficult shoot well because we had a great team," he added.
"Also, I would like to give a big thanks and special mention to the locals who not only helped us acclimatise and adapt to the tough weather conditions but helped us every step of the way to complete an otherwise gruelling shoot schedule," Vikas Bahl concluded.
