After shooting in various
parts of the world, Jackie Chan will now head to India to complete the
shooting of his upcoming action thriller. A source associated with the
Indo-Chinese production says, “The film's India schedule will be shot at
the Thar desert in
Rajasthan. Shooting will begin end of this month and it will be a
two-three week schedule.“
This is not the first time an international film is being shot in this exotic location. In the past, movies such as Octopussy, Darjeeling Limited, The Warrior, Vanity Fair and many others have been filmed here.

One of India's most exotic heritage hotels, The Jodhpur Palace, will soon be lit up with a million diyas for Jackie Chan's Kung Fu Yoga. The international action star is set to don a bright red kurta, green mojris and a dhol around his neck, as he flaunts his newly-acquired laktas and jhatkas to a Bollywood-style masala song along with Disha Patani, who features in Neeraj Pandey's MS Dhoni - The Untold Story, and Mr X actress Amyra Dastur in the scenic Rajasthani city.
On March 20, the multi-lingual action-mystery-adventure featuring Chan and Sonu Sood, will roll in India. "Since Jackie Chan is flying in, the entire venue is being cordoned off. Security checks have already begun and an international team of bodyguards is being brought in with the unit," a source close to the development informed Mirror.
Directed by Stanley Tong, the Indo-Chinese production's first schedule rolled in Beijing, followed by Dubai, and was wrapped up last month in Iceland. "The Indian schedule will be the last one and the most expensive," adds the source.
The film follows a renowned archaeology professor at the fictional Terracotta Warriors Museum in China who teams up with an Indian counterpart to locate India's lost Magadha treasure in Tibet. "They are joined by several other interesting characters as their search leads them to India. Sonu plays Randall, a descendent of a rebel army leader who claims a right to the royal treasure. The unit will also be shooting at a yet-to- be-revealed location in India, which will appear as the "Sacred Mountain to unlock the treasure" in the film," the source concludes.
