Border set in Village Ballowal - Bharat

On the set of Bharat movie #Slaman_Khan

A member of the crew told The Indian Express that it is due to script’s demand that a set of Wagah Border has been setup in Ludhiana where shooting is expected to take place till November 18. Since it is not allowed by the Border Security Force (BSF) to shoot at Wagah Border due to security reasons, it was decided to setup a replica at Ballowal in Ludhiana. Also, there were certain scenes in which actors had to cross the border and move to Pakistan side which could not have been allowed either by BSF on Indian side or Pakistan Rangers on their side.

“There were certain scenes in which actors have to cross border and reach Pakistan side. It was not possible to shoot them at original location. Also, it wasn’t practical to shoot at Wagah Border in Amritsar as it is normally not allowed by BSF due to security reasons. It was highly unlikely that BSF might have permitted,” said the source.
