Mumbai, Aug 16 (IANS) Superstar Salman Khan and actress Katrina Kaif are heading to Russia on August 18 to shoot the international leg of the spy thriller 'Tiger 3', which was put on hold due to the pandemic.
The 45-day gruelling schedule is filled with action sequences, and will see Salman and Katrina shoot in at least 5 international destinations including Austria and Turkey.
Given the pandemic, YRF head honcho Aditya Chopra is flying the cast and crew via a jumbo charter.

The source added: "The direction team under Maneesh has prepped for months for this schedule and Aditya Chopra is clear that the shoot needs to happen smoothly."
According to the source, Salman and Katrina will land in Russia first and then head to multiple shooting destinations like Turkey and Austria.
"Aditya Chopra and Maneesh Sharma didn't want to compromise on the scale of the film despite the pandemic and they have planned 'Tiger 3' to be a visually spectacular theatrical experience. Thus, this schedule will add a lot to the film's visual extravaganza and some never-seen-before action sequences will be filmed," the source concluded.
'Tiger 3' is the third part of the spy thriller franchise starring Salman Khan with Katrina Kaif. The first instalment 'Ek Tha Tiger' directed by Kabir Khan released in 2012. The second 'Tiger Zinda Hai' released in 2017 and was directed by Ali Abbas Zafar.
Singer Himesh Reshammiya, who replaced Anu Malik as a judge on the ongoing season of "Indian Idol", has signed contestant Sunny Hindustani for a song in Rajkumar Santoshis upcoming film.
At 73, Shekhar Kapur is all set to return as the director of a new project. The filmmaker will reunite with "Elizabeth" writer Michael Hirst for a new series titled "Ibis Trilogy", based on novelist Amitav Ghosh's historical fiction trilogy of the same name.
"I work with new directors because big directors don't take me (in their films). That is the truth,a claimed the Bollywood superstar, while interacting with the media at the trailer launch of his upcoming film "Good Newwz".
Kapil Sharma has invited Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Diljit Dosanjh and Kiara Advani to promote their forthcoming feature ‘Good Newwz’ on the ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’—but with a special request.
