Happiness, peace reign in new Kashmir: Rohit Shetty

Mumbai, May 28

After wrapping up the shooting of ‘Singham Again’ in Kashmir, Rohit Shetty has shared his experience of filming the action-packed movie and shared how the abrogation of Article 370 has changed the place.

Taking to his Instagram handle, he posted a beautiful video which gives the glimpses of the Kashmir shoot schedule of ‘Singham Again’. In the video, the ace filmmaker along with actor Ajay Devgn can be seen interacting with the people, police officials, meeting children and signing autographs. Shetty also thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his efforts of making “Naya Kashmir”.

Modi government abrogated Article 370 from Jammu and Kashmir in August 2019, months after it came to office for the second successive term.

In the video shared by Rohit Shetty, there is a text which reads as, “We always had a paradise in our motherland called Kashmir but once there was terrorism, unrest, curfews, no social life. And then Article 370 got abolished. 5 years later we landed up filming Singham Again. And now the New Kashmir. Happiness. Young energy. Tourism. Peace. Love. Naye Bharat ka naya Kashmir.” In the caption, he wrote, “@narendramodi@hmoindia…Had the most amazing and emotional schedule. Thank you for the tremendous love Kashmir”. Recently, Ajay Devgn also expressed his gratitude to the officials and local people in the Valley for the support they provided to the team to conduct the film’s shoot smoothly.

In a special video, Ajay said, “Thank you so much Kashmir film authority for a lovely shoot and so much cooperation… It’s a beautiful place. We wish we keep coming here. Thank you.” During the shoot, Ajay and Rohit also met with the jawans of the Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) in Jammu and Kashmir.

Recently, actor Jackie Shroff, who plays a pivotal role in the film, expressed his gratitude to the J&K government for their unwavering support to the film industry professionals, who visit the UT for shooting movies—
