The principal photography of this film occured in the month of August and September and by end of septemner the filming was completed, currently it's in post-production and it won't be released supposedly until late summer or winter next year.
the movie will be released hopefully in april next year. all the filming has been completed. as far as amitabh bacchans role in the film, you'll have to wait and see!! i'll give you a hint though - he's playing the role of aan advocate and his name in the movie is dhingra! thats all i can tell you!!
Really? I thought that that Apporva Lakhia had said that Abhishek and Amitabh played cops in the movie? Anyways, so that makes AMitabh in his second advocate role after "Zamaanat" releases...let me rephrase - if it releases
Correction...providing Zamaanat releases, Shoot Out at Lokhandwala will be the third film where Amitabh will be seen an an advocate's role, his first role was in Mahaan (which incidentaly was directed by S. Ramanathan, director of Zamaanat)
Apoorva Lakhia states: "Reveals the excited director, "It was fantastic! I've just shot the most amazing action sequence with Abhishek for four days. As usual it was a blast for me and the crew. It always is. I made my debut with Junior (Abhishek) in Mumbai Se Aaya Mera Dost. I can't dream of making a film without Junior and his Dad, preferably both, but Junior for sure. Luckily I got Abhishek to make a guest appearance at the end of Ek Ajnabee (which starred the Big B). And now both make significant appearances in my Shoot-out ….In fact after shooting with Abhishek , I've gone straight into shooting with 'God' (the big B) for the next three days. I think that's historic."
Abhishek in fact, insisted on performing the long street chase. Reveals Apoorva, "His character triggers off the whole plot. We took four days to shoot the prelude because Junior insisted on doing the entire action sequence."
As for the Senior Bachchan, "He's in the film throughout. Both of them play cops. ….Though they're unrelated." Quite a change from the senior and junior Bachchan's last appearances together in Ram Gopal Varma's Sarkar and Karan Johar's Kabhi Alvidaa Na Kehna where they played father and son, and Bunty Aur Babli where they shared substantial screen space. In Shoot-out At Lokhandwala they don't share a single frame. "
