A go-to destination for the silver screen, Morocco continues to attract major film productions. Next on the list: the Bollywood project “Captain India,” led by rising Indian cinema star Kartik Aaryan.
The actor, whose recent blockbuster “Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3” garnered massive success, is set to collaborate with director Shimit Amin (known for “Chak De! India” [2007] and “Rocket Singh” [2009]) to shoot portions of this upcoming large-scale production in Morocco, as reported by industry portal Pinkvilla on August 11. The outlet notes that a team has already completed location scouting in the Kingdom.
