A worldwide recce for Maneesh Sharma’s next film - FAN

Maneesh Sharma’s film FAN starring Shahrukh Khan will be going on floors later this year

Maneesh is keen to shoot the film in a location which is largely untapped by Bollywood.

The director is keen to venture out and find locations which have not been experienced by the audiences.

He has discussed this at length with producer Aditya Chopra and has also done extensive research and roughly worked out the logistics of places he can look at for shooting.

 Maneesh along with his team have narrowed down a couple of places and will be going for a recce to personally get a sense of the workings.

He will be visiting Zagreb, Hvar, and Dubrovnik in Croatia; Amsterdam in the Netherlands; and Edinburgh in Scotland.

The recce team needs to identify places where they can shoot, speak to the authorities, get required permissions and look at the feasibility of shooting.

The film has high octane action sequence and hence safety, precautions are other key factors they need to look into before choosing the location.

Large portions of the film will also be shot in Mumbai, New Delhi, and London.

Shraddha takes her fan's dad to task for the sake of humanity

Recently when Shraddha Kapoor was shooting, she had a bitter sweet experience.

A seven year old girl who was Shraddha's fan came to meet Shraddha along with her father.

The father told the sweet actress how his daughter is such a fan of hers and she loves her. He said, You are so beautiful. My god you are so pretty, my daughter isn't pretty but someday she wishes to be like you, in his daughter's presence.

To which Shraddha immediately disagreed and told her that she has a pretty smile and always keep Smiling and hugged her.


Shraddha was totally shaken up and for the sake of humanity, she told her team to get that man outside her vanity van and with a lot of respect and politely explained to him how wrong he was in doing that.

Told him that what he did could have serious implications on her growing up years, self esteem and scar her for the rest of her life.
