What's the story
Tiger Shroff's upcoming movie, Vajra, directed by Ram Madhvani, will be filmed extensively in Japan. An insider told Mid-Day, "Around 60% of the story will be shot in Japan, and the remaining in Mumbai." This will be the second Indian production to be shot in Japan in the last few months, after Aamir Khan-backed Ek Din.
Cultural fusion
Film will incorporate Japanese martial arts
The film will incorporate elements of Japanese martial arts into its narrative. The insider told the outlet, "With this movie, the director intends to blend Tiger's action prowess and the country's rich martial arts." "The set-pieces will have elements of karate, judo, and kenjutsu that used to be practiced by samurai."
Filming locations
Team is planning a multi-city schedule
Before the filming of Vajra begins in late April, the team is planning a multi-city schedule. The first schedule will reportedly be shot in Tokyo, with other potential locations being Kyoto and Okinawa. The insider added, "The team is also looking at Kyoto, since it has strong ties to the country's feudal martial history, and Okinawa."
