Saif-Jaideep set to kick off second schedule of heist thriller Jewel Thief in Mumbai from April 7; to wrap up film in May with elaborate stint in Europe

Saif Ali Khan and Jaideep Ahlawat
You can’t blame us for keeping an eye out for Jewel Thief. After all, Robbie Grewal’s directorial venture brings two powerful performers Saif Ali Khan and Jaideep Ahlawat on screen together. While the Siddharth Anand-backed heist thriller went on floors in February, we now hear the team is gearing up for its second schedule in Mumbai that kicks off in April, which will be followed by the final leg in Europe.
Guess we can expect a battle of wits as Khan and Ahlawat’s characters are pitted against each other in the thriller, which is penned by Grewal, Anand and Sambit Mishra, and is centred on a high-stakes robbery. A source reveals that in the first schedule, the actors shot a chunk of action sequences and some dramatic portions. “The second schedule begins from April 7 during which Saif and Jaideep will shoot critical portions across real locations in south and suburban Mumbai. It will be a 20-day stint after which the unit will head to Europe for the final leg. The director plans to film some songs and an action sequence in the foreign stint. He is currently on a recce in Europe and will lock the locations by the weekend. Robbie’s plan is to wrap up the project by May,” reveals a source.
