Now, it looks like the team is all prepped up to begin the UAE leg, which would also be John Abraham's first schedule for the film.

A source told Mid Day, "The leads filmed emotional scenes during the last two schedules at Yash Raj Studios in Mumbai. Now, the stage is being set for the action scenes, which will be the highlight of the spy thriller. A stylised chase sequence with Shah Rukh and John will be shot in Abu Dhabi. The team started their recce from the UAE capital, where they visited Liwa Oasis and Ferrari World, the first Ferrari-themed park in the world. In Dubai, they will visit the Business Bay, which is the modern financial district. They are also planning an elaborate sequence at the architectural landmark, Meydan Bridge. The site served as a backdrop in Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol.”

Earlier, controversy erupted on the sets of Pathan when reports of a major fight on the sets were heard. Apparently, director Siddharth Anand had slapped an assistant, who in turn slapped him back. Chaos ensued, but the shoot resumed normally the very next day.
