Film Shoots Resumes In Mumbai, Akshay Kumar Spotted

The shooting of films and TV shows have resumed in Mumbai after two months of lockdown. Though the lockdown will officially end on May 31, Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray has considered the request of Producers Guild Of India to resume the shooting of films and TV. And Akshay Kumar is the first Bollywood celeb to step out for outdoor shoot amid the coronavirus pandemic. Akshay along with filmmaker R. Balki who directed Pad Man, stepped out of their home to shoot an ad campaign for the Indian government. Speaking of the same, Balki said “Akshay and I have shot this ad-campaign for the Government of India to make people aware of their responsibilities post lockdown. Things might seem difficult but through this ad, we now know what all precautions need to be taken to shoot in the post-lockdown era. Our producer Anil Naidu made everything seem effortless and we all maintained social distancing. The shoot happened smoothly following hygiene protocols, ensuring minimum crew with maximum efficiency and safety.” In the pictures, we can see that everyone including Akshay Kumar wore mask, managed social distancing, sanitised the set, used disinfectant screen, masks and more. Also, there were only 20 people who were seen on the sets. With this, it seems like this will become the new normal.
