It was further reported, “Akshay had left for the day by around 3.30 pm local time and other actors were also not present for the shoot at that time. Akshay filmed his portions by late afternoon and then the director proceeded to shoot the war sequence with the additional artists.”

“The unit had created the Gulistan Fort, which is one of the key locations of the battle. As 10-day shoot is yet to be covered, a new set will need to be recreated. Though it’s too early to say, the makers are now considering building the set in Film City in Mumbai,” sources revealed.
