When US President Barack Obama issued a warning to the embattled Bashar al-Assad regime of Syria recently, little did he know that his announcement will wreak havoc far away in Bollywood. The dispatch from White House sent shivers down the spine of Kabir Khan who is all set to fly down to the Syria-Lebanon border with Katrina Kaif and Saif Ali Khan for his upcoming film. The latest political development has put the film’s schedule abroad into a tizzy with concerns over the security of the cast and crew being raised. But Kabir and the film’s producer Sajid Nadiadwala have decided to go ahead but with a newly fortified security cover. A source told TOI, “The new security cover will cost Nadiadwala about Rs 20 lakh more, but safety has to come first as both he and Kabir do not want to take any risks.”
