Shah
Rukh
Khan-Deepika
Padukone's
Pathan
and
Salman
Khan-Katrina
Kaif's
Tiger
3
are
the
two
upcoming
movies
from
the
Yash
Raj
Films
stable
which
has
left
fans
quite
excitement.
While
Pathan
marks
King
Khan's
comeback
on
screen
after
a
short
sabbatical,
the
Salman
Khan-starrer
is
the
third
film
in
the
highly
popular
Tiger
franchise.
But
now
it
looks
like
the
audience
will
have
to
wait
for
some
more
time
before
both
these
two
flicks
hit
the
big
screen.
As
per
a
report
in
Mid-day,
the
shooting
of
Pathan
and
Tiger
3
has
been
put
on
hold
due
to
the
surge
in
the
COVID-19
cases.
The
report
stated
that
this
decision
was
taken
by
the
respective
directors
and
producer
Aditya
Chopra
in
wake
of
the
rise
in
COVID
19
cases.
A
source
from
the
sets
of
Tiger
3
informed
the
tabloid,
"The
production
house
was
vigilant
with
testing
on
set.
However,
once
a
case
was
detected,
they
immediately
decided
to
halt
work
as
the
city's
doubling
rate
was
high
at
the
time.
The
crew
strength
of
Pathan
and
Tiger
3
is
heavy.
In
such
a
scenario,
a
high
number
of
people
would
be
at
risk,
even
if
one
tested
positive.
Taking
this
into
account,
the
directors
along
with
producer
Aditya
Chopra
decided
to
put
the
brakes
on
the
shoots."
Besides
these
two
projects,
one
hears
that
the
shooting
of
Yash
Raj
Films'
web
series
The
Railway
Men
starring
R
Madhavan,
Kay
Kay
Menon
and
Babil
Khan
has
also
been
put
on
hold
till
there
is
a
significant
decline
in
the
COVID-19
cases.
Mid-day
further
stated
that
several
production
houses
which
have
decided
to
continue
to
shoot
are
taking
stringent
safety
norms
on
the
set.
"Vidyut
has
been
filming
at
Sunil
Maidaan
in
Film
City
over
the
past
few
days.
Akshay
Kumar
recently
shot
for
a
commercial
in
Madh
Island.
These
instances
send
out
a
strong
message
to
the
industry
that
work
has
to
go
on.
This
time
around,
the
industry
so
far
has
suffered
less
than
the
last
two
waves," the
source
was
quoted
as
saying
by
the
publication.
