Bollywood star Akshay Kumar will be heading to the United Kingdom to start the shooting for his film Bell Bottom and the actor says the makers have chalked out a plan to ensure safety of the entire crew amid the coronavirus pandemic. The team of Bell Bottom, including actors Vaani Kapoor, Huma Qureshi and Lara Dutta, will be travelling to the UK in August for a start-to-finish schedule. Produced by Vashu Bhagnani's Pooja Entertainment, Bell Bottom is one of the first films to announce resumption of shooting schedule in the wake of coronavirus-induced lockdown, which had brought the entertainment industry to a grinding halt.
"The new normal has made us realise a different way of working that none of us could have imagined. As much as I'm happy to be back on the sets, it's also important for us to take care of everything around us. "Pooja Entertainment has laid down a safety plan for our shooting schedule abroad. We hope these measures help us accomplish a smooth and safe shoot," Akshay said in a statement. The production house will charter a flight to fly the entire unit with medical facilities. Besides medical-grade masks and face shields, the production house will also make it mandatory for the cast and crew to wear a wrist watch that will constantly monitor their oxygen levels, body temperature, blood pressure, stress levels and pulse. A centralised dashboard will record the parameters of the entire unit and keep a check for any changes in readings. Director Ranjit M Tewari said though it'll be a challenge to shoot under the current situation, the crew is excited to start the work.
