“The song features 200 professional gymnasts who were flown in from the US. And yes, the budget is roughly Rs 5 crore,” says a source. The cost includes the fees of the gymnasts, their costumes and even the elaborate sets.

“The 200 artistes stayed in the city for 20 days as they were training. The humongous set took nearly two months to be created,” adds the source. The Dhoom:3 track will feature Aamir Khan and Katrina Kaif.
