During our walking tour of the defensive walls around Dubrovnik's Old Town, we saw some unusual activity down by the harbor walkway. Of course, curiosity "encouraged" us to go check it out. Bollywood (India's film industry) was shooting part of a movie along the waterfront. We spent the better part of two hours watching them set-up scenes and then shooting and reshooting them. It was facinating! What's more, the main actor in the film reportedly is the second highest paid actor in the world, next to Seinfeld. For about a half-second, we thought about hiring on as extras, but fortunately thought better of it.
Setting up for a scene shoot. The main character "rides" this motorcycle along the waterfront chasing a bad guy. Interesting to see this ATV pulling the motorcycle on the flatbed with the actor aboard as if he was actually driving the bike.
Getting ready to roll down the waterfront.
This was the dry run walk through to make sure everyone, including the extras, knew what to do and when.
Seated is Shah Rukh Kahn (nicknamed King Kahn), the second highest paid actor in the world. Supposedly, he made $58 million dollars during the first three months of 2015 alone.
Some of the crew putting together props for the movie. They were set-up next to the Rector's Palace museum.
The film crew sent up a drone with a mounted camera to take some overhead stock footage of Dubrovnik's Old Town.
