Big B has described the shoot as tough but energising. “Strangely though, the so-called harsh schedule just completed in the wilds and hills and chills of mountainous Thailand... of disciplined, gentle and smiling Thai has not had any after effects of discomfort or malaise. It’s been tough, the shoot for ‘Thugs of Hindostan’, but in a funny way very energising,” Amitabh wrote on his blog.

“Despite the long hour drives and cold locations within the forests .. infested with volumes of insects and creepy crawlies and snakes and bats and .. you name it .. its a pity I cannot strengthen the words pictorially .. but when the time is right I shall .. I think just the breathing in of the environment, the air, the green of the forests and those walks through hill and dale seem to have done it,” he wrote.
